Consumer Description

THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW IN FEB 2003. TWO IGNITION COILS REPLACED. I AWAIT THE BILL FOR THE REMAINING 2 COILS THAT WILL LIKELY GO BAD. THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME THAT THIS HAD BEEN RECALLED ON THE 2001-2002 MODELS. I AM PERPLEXED BY THIS INFORMATION BEING I SEE NO RECALLS ON IGNITION COILS, BUT I DO SEE A HOST OF COMPLAINTS. *JB
