Consumer Description

THE SENSOR/GAS LEVEL IN THE GAS TANK WENT OUT WHEN THE CAR HAD 53000 + OR - ON IT AND IT COST US $300 TO FIX IT. THE DRIVER'S DOOR DOESN'T SEAL. AND NOW, AS WE LEFT A STORE TONIGHT, THE FLASHING (YES FLASHING) CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND THE CAR IS SPUTTERING AND CLANGING FROM UNDER THE BONNET. IT IS IN THE EVENING AND A FRIDAY NIGHT. I OPENED THE HOOD AND IT SMELLED FUNKY/BURNT. IT WAS SPUTTERING. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS 72000 MILES ON IT. I'LL TRY TO GET IT LOOKED AT IN THE MORROW.
