Consumer Description

PURCHASED VEHICLE IN 4/05-PROBLEMS STARTED IN 10/05. ENGINE LIGHT ON AND ENGINE IDLE ROUGH ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS. TWO SENSORS, A SOLENOID, AND SPARK PLUG REPLACED ON THOSE OCCASIONS. NOW CAR IS AT DEALER BECAUSE IT WILL STALL WHEN IDLE AND LOSE POWER. THIS IS REALLY NOT SAFE WHEN YOU ARE ENTERING TRAFFIC! STILL WAITING FOR THE OUTCOME OF THIS. THE FUEL SENDING UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO ERRATIC FUEL GAUGE-THE GAUGE WOULD SHOW EMPTY WHEN THE TANK WAS FULL. *NM
