Consumer Description

SHORTLY AFTER BOUGHT CAR, HAD MANY MAKEUP PROBLEMS: TRIM PANEL FALLING OFF, 3 OUR 4 WINDOWS HAVE BEEN FIXED NUMEROUS TIMES. CANNOT HAVE TRIM FIXED UNLESS DO WHOLE CAR, WHICH IS TOO EXPENSIVE AND I DIDNT PAY ALL THAT MONEY FOR A CAR TO HAVE DISH OUT MORE MONEY FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. I HAVE PAID TO HAVE ALL THE WINDOWS FIXED EXCEPT THIS LAST TIME, I JUST WILL NOT DO IT. NO ACCIDENTS, NOTHING FOR THESE PROBLEMS TO BE OCCURING. ALSO, THE TIE RODS HAVE BEEN REPLACED NUMEROUS TIMES. LASTLY, STEERING/SUSPENSION HAS BEEN A PROBLEM. ALL THESE PROBLEMS TOOK PLACE FOUR MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE AND SINCE THEN HAS BEEN A PROBLEM. *AK
