Consumer Description

I HAD ONLY HAD MY MINI FOR ABOUT TWO MONTHS AND WAS DRIVING FROM HUNTSVILLE, AL TO TUSCALOOSA, AL FOR AN EVENT FOR MY DAUGHTER. THE CVT WENT OUT AND I HAD TO RENT A VEHICLE TO GO. THEN WHEN I GOT IT FIXED THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD BE ABOUT 2,000.00 DOLLARS BUT WHEN I WENT TO PICK IT UP IT WAS 6,000.00. THEN ABOUT A MONTH AGO 1/2012 MY POWER STEERING STARTED MESSING UP AND TOOK TO MY MECHANIC. HE THOUGHT IT WAS HOPEFULLY JUST A LOOSE HOSE AND GOT IT WORKING AGAIN. HOWEVER TWO WEEKS AGO IT WENT OUT AGAIN AND HE CHECKED IT OUT AND THE POWER STEERING PUMP WAS TOAST. DOES NOT EVEN HAVE 100,000 MILES ON IT. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH IT. *TR
