Consumer Description

OVER THE YEARS OF OWNING THE CAR THAT I BOUGHT NEW FOR MY DAUGHTER WE HAD IT IN FOR SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES FOR A STICKING THROTTLE AND CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEMS. I HAVE RECORDS OF 6 DIFFERENT TIMES WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR THROTTLE PROBLEMS. THE LAST TIME THE THROTTLE STUCK IT CAUSED OUR VEHICLE TO HIT THE BACK OF ANOTHER VEHICLE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER COMPLAINING OF THE MOTOR REVVING UP CAUSING THE ACCIDENT. WE WERE IGNORED OF THE PROBLEM THEN TOLD THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER WORTH THE COST OF THE REPAIRS CAUSED FROM THE ACCIDENT. *TR
