Consumer Description

INTAKE GASKET WENT IN CAR COST $740.00 TO FIX,THE COOLANT WAS MIXING WITH OIL. I DIDN'T HAVE HEAT COULDN'T SEE OUT BACK WINDOW. THE SIGNALS WORK WHEN THEY WANT,THE REAR DEFROSTER DON'T WORK,MY HUSBAND HAS FIXED IT 2X AND PUT IN SHOP,STILL DON'T WORK. MY CAR GETS SERVICE WHEN ITS TIME. THERE'S A SOUND IN THE DASHBOARD SOUND LIKE WIRES RUBBING TOGETHER AND YOU GET A LITTLE SHOCK WHEN YOU GET OUT CAR. I HOPE I DON'T BE DRIVING AND MY CAR CATCH ON FIRE WITH ME IN IT. I THINK MY CAR WAS IN THE BAD BATCH SECTION. *TR
