NHTSA Complaint #10453154 — 2005 CHEVROLET IMPALA

I PURCHASED A CAR FROM ICARSNOW (704-551-0990) ON SOUTH BLVD IN CHARLOTTE ON OCTOBER 28, 2011. I DROVE THE CAR FOR A WEEK WHEN THE GEARS STARTED SLIPPING AND THE CAR STARTED TO STALL AND JERK THE CAR HAD A 90 DAY WARRANTY SO I CALLED SOUTHERN WARRANTY (704-282-1814) AND THEY HAD ME TO TAKE THE CAR TO CARSON AUTOMOTIVE 10940 A E. INDEPENDENCE BLVD. MATTHEWS NC THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION AND CONVERTER ON 11/4/11. I PICKED THE CAR UP DROVE FOR A WEEK OR TWO AND THE CAR WAS STILL STALLING AND JERKING. I CALLED CARSON AUTOMOTIVE AND TOOK THE CAR BACK.. I ALSO HEARD A NOISE IN THE ENGINE. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO CARSON AUTOMOTIVE THEY COULD NOT FIND WHY THE CAR WAS STALLING AND JERKING BUT THE SAID THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF A ROD THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED ON 12/27/11. THAT IS WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT THE 90 DAY WARRANTY WAS 50/50 WHERE IF ANYTHING MAJOR HAPPEN TO THE CAR THE WARRANTY COMPANY WOULD PAY HAVE AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY HALF. THIS IS NOT HOW IT WAS EXPLAINED BY THE SALESMAN AT ICARSNOW. HE TOLD ME AFTER THE 90 DAY WARRANTY IF ANYTHING HAPPENS MAJOR THAT THE WARRANTY COMPANY AND I WOULD SHARE THE COST. IN ORDER FOR ME TO NOT LOOSE THE MONEY ALREADY PAID ON THE CAR I HAVE TO PAY HALF ON THE ENGINE. AFTER THE ENGINE WAS REPLACED THE CAR WAS LEAKING ANTI- FREEZE I TOOK THE CAR BACK AGAIN CARSON AUTOMOTIVE COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. THE REAR WINDOW REPLACED BECAUSE THE DEFROST WAS NOT ATTACHED AND SPARKED WHEN YOU TOUCHED IT. THERE WAS ALSO A LEAK IN THE TRUNK THAT HAD TO BE REPAIRED. AFTER THAT THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE STARTED TO MOVE UP I TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC FOR HIM TO CHECK IT OUT ON 2/25/12. THE PROBLEM WAS POSSIBLE HEAD GASKET DAMAGE. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO CARSON AUTOMOTIVE SINCE THEY PUT THE ENGINE IN. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NOT THE ENGINE BUT A CRACKED RADIATOR. RADIATOR WAS REPLACED ON 2/27/12. *TR
