Consumer Description

CAR COMPLETELY DIED OUT AND SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAJOR INTERSECTION AT 35 MILES PER HOUR. ON AUGUST 20 / 2008 THE CAR REPEATED THE SAME FAILURE IN TRAFFIC AT 45 MILES PER HOUR. WHEN STARTED THE VEHICLE IT WANTS TO CHOKE UP AND STALL, AT LEAST 20 TIMES SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE ON FEB. 18 / 2008. I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE THAT I PAID CASH FOR NOW. THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE ARE SAYING THAT THEY CANT FIND THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM AND THAT THEY ARE NO LONGER WILLING TO CORRECT THESE SERIOUS FAILURES AND ISSUE. THEY ARE DEMANDING THAT I PICK UP THE VEHICLE AND HAVE NOT RETURNED ANY OF MY CALLS. THEY HAVE ALSO DENIED ME A LOANER VEHICLE AND I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT MY VEHICLE FOR ALMOST 2 WEEKS NOW. I AM SEEKING LEGAL REPRESENTATION TO THIS MATTER AND HAVE BECOME VERY DISCOURAGED. *TR
