Consumer Description

WE BOUGHT A 2003 ECLIPSE FROM SUN COAST MIS. RIGHT AWAY WE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SMELL OF MOLD. FINALLY WE TOOK THE CAR IN ON A RAINY DAY AND MY WIFE GOT OUT OF THE BACK SEAT TOTALLY WET. THEY REPAIRED THE PROBLEM, BUT WE WERE BACK AGAIN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS LAST TIME WE TOOK THE CAR IN WE COULD SMELL MOLD AGAIN. THEY FOUND ANOTHER LEAK AT THE FIRE WALL ON THE PASS. SIDE. WE LIVE 66 MILES AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE HAD OUR CAR FOR REPAIRS OVER 30 DAYS. WE HAVE HAD OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR LIKE PAINT CHIPS ON THE HOOD, SIDE MIRROW HAD TO BE REPLACED, THE RADIO CD HAD TO BE FIXED AND OTHER THINGS.
