Consumer Description

ALL WERE WARRANTY REPAIRS. THE IGNITION COIL WENT OUT FIRST. THEN THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THE BODY WAS JUST A MINOR THING, A RAIN RAIL CAME LOOSE, AND IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. FINALLY, THE CAR CAUGHT FIRE ON 09-02-03 AND IT IS TOTALLY. I ONLY HAD IT TWO YRS. AND IT ONLY HAD 31,000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS A HISTORY OF STALLING OUT ON TRIPS OF 30 MILES OR MORE, IT WOULD RESTART SOON THOUGH. CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS.
