Consumer Description

ONSEVERAL OCCASIONS CAR WOULD NOT START WHEN PARKED ON INCLINE. AFTER A FEW HOURS CAR WOULD START. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS LIT AT THIS TIME. TOOK TO DEALER AND HE INDICATED TO ME THAT IT WAS A CATALYTIC CONVERTER PROBLEM. DEALER REFERRED TO EMISSION SPECIALIST. I HAD THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPLACED AND RESET CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED BACK ON AFTER A FEW DAYS, CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS. I TOOK THE CAR TO A LOCAL MECHANIC, HE COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. NOW CAR STALLS WHILE AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK WHILE IN USE. I HAVE BEEN PARKING MY CAR DOWNHILL AND IT STARTS WITHOUT A PROBLEM. TODAY, ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS CAR STALLED ON THE ROAD. FOR SOME REASON I DID NOT RECEIVE NOTICE OF IGNITION SWITCH ISSUES AND DID NOT HAVE IT REPLACED.*AK
