Consumer Description

PURCHASED THE CAR, DROVE IT UP A HILL HAD A TERRIBLE EGG SMELL SEEMS TO BE EVERY TIME I GO UP A HILL. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT WAS THE GAS I WAS USING. TOOK IT TO ANOTHER GARAGE AND THEY SAY IT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER WON'T DO ANYTHING THE SMELL IS VERY EMBARRASSING. WE BOUGHT THIS FOR A FAMILY CAR NOW NO ONE WANTS TO RIDE IN IT. MAYBE THAT'S WHY IT'S A 2001 AND ONLY HAS 12,000 MILES ON IT. *JB
