Consumer Description

VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT INTO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES FOR OVERHEATING. AFTER THE 4TH TIME THE CAR OVERHEATED AND I LOST ALL POWER AS IT CAUGHT ON FIRE. I HAD TO MAKE A DANGEROUS LANE CHANGE ACROSS 4 LANES OF HIGHWAY WHILE LOSING POWER. THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED IN 2006 BUT THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS JUST OVER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE STILL IS HAVING PROBLEMS STARTING AND IS BEING TOWED TO THE MECHANIC AGAIN TODAY. *TR
