My car had no problems. Came home from work and 2 hours later, My car was repossessed. It was returned 13 days later knocking louder than heck and with a totally dead battery. Needs new motor. Was told by storage facility looks like oil was drained intentionally. Isn't there a computer in car that can tell me the date when something happened to car or is it erased because of dead battery? Battery was so dead you could even roll up a window or unlock door with remote. Thank you in advance.
