NHTSA Complaint #10026139 — 1997 OLDSMOBILE AURORA

I PURCHASED A VEHICLE FORM CHESROWN GMC/KIA IN COLUMBUS OHIO. I BOUGHT IT ON JUNE 3RD 2002 PAID $10500.00+ $892.00 (EXTEND WARRANTY)WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR I OPTED FOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. SINCE THAT TIME, I HAVE HAD FUEL PUMP, FEUL SWITCH, FEUL LINE, FUEL INJECTORS OF MY CAR GO BAD (MORE THAN ONCE!). WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON A HEAVILY TRAVELED STREET THE ENGINE JUST STOPPED! MY HUSBAND GOT OUT TO PUSH THE VEHICLE PUTTING HIM IN DANGER. I TOOK THE VEHICLE OUT THE NEXT DAY AND ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS THE ENGINE CEASED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THE TECHNICIANS SAID I DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS & THEY FINALLY CONCLUDED IT HAD A BAD FUEL PUMP. THEY REPLACED IT. LESS THAN 24 HOURS LATER, I WAS AT THE SHOP AGAIN! THE FUEL PUMP THAT THEY PUT IN DIDN'T WORK EITHER. I HAVE A SERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEM WHICH REQUIRES I BE ON BLOOD THINNERS. AN ACCIDENT FOR A NORMAL PERSON WOULD BE HARMFUL, FOR ME IT WOULD MEAN ALMOST CERTAIN DEATH. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THE CAR. I HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TRYING TO FIX IT. I AM CONTACTING YOU TO ASK FOR YOUR HELP. MY UNCLE HAD THE SAME MAKE & MODEL (OLD AURORA 97') HIS COULD NOT BE FIXED.*AK I BELIEVE THAT THIS CAR IS A LEMON. I HAVE PUT MORE THAN ENOUGH TIME, MONEY & GRIEF INTO TRYING TO GET IT WORKING. THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE IS A DANGEROUS ONE. PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE. I AM JUST ASKING FOR WHAT EVERY REASONABLE PERSON WOULD. A MECHANICALLY SAFE VEHICLE. I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING THIS ISSUE SERIOUSLY, AS I DO NOT WANT TO CONTINUE TO PUT MYSELF IN UNNECESSARY DANGER. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE YOU WITH EVERY RECORD OF SERVICE & DATES ETC IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THEM (ONCE I GET IT BACK FORM THE SHOP). SINCERELY, SUSAN M. PENDLETON THE FIRST FAILURE HAPPENED ON MARCH 6TH EVENING. THE NEXT ON 3/7/03, ETC...
