INITIALLY I THOUGHT ROAD DEBRIS WAS CAUGHT UNDERNEATH THE CAR AND I WAS DRAGGING IT ALONG WHILE DRIVING.  I QUICKLY TURNED THE CAR TO THE RIGHT OFF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE MOTOR OFF.  UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE I NOTICED ALL OF THE ENGINE'S OIL SPEWING OUT FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE. I CONTACTED MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND ARRANGED FOR A TOW VEHICLE.  I THOUGHT AN OBJECT STRUCK THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF MY CAR.  THE CAR WAS INSPECTED BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND DETERMINED TO BE A COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE.  NO EVIDENCE OF A ROAD HAZARD PERFORATING THE ENGINE WAS SEEN.  SINCE I FILED THIS LETTER I HAVE LEARNED THAT MY ENGINE SUFFERED AN INTERMEDIATE SHAFT FAILURE.  THIS IS A  DEFECT IN THE M96 PORSCHE ENGINES (1999-2009).  THIS DEFECT OCCURS IN WATER COOLED PORSCHE ENGINES.  PORSCHE MOTOR COMPANY DENIES  RESPONSIBILITY  IN THESE VEHICLES BUT RECOGNIZES THAT ENGINE FAILURE DO OCCUR.    I HAVE ACCURATE RECORDS WITH THE COST OF THE REPAIR.  HOW CAN AN AUTOMOBILE COMPANY RECOGNIZE THAT A DEFECT EXISTS BUT WILL NOT ISSUE OR BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRS?  THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP.
