Consumer Description

WHILE ON VACATION, NOTICED THE ENGINE LIGHT COME ON, NO APPARENT PROBLEMS AT THE TIME BUT THE NEXT MORNING (AFTER SITTING IN THE PARKING RAMP ALL NIGHT) I COME OUT TO FIND A DEAD CAR BATTERY. APPARENTLY, AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF AND REMOVING THE KEY, THE CAR DID NOT SHUT OFF. JUMPED THE BATTERY, TOOK IT RIGHT TO A REPAIR SHOP. DUE TO A MAJOR WATER LEAK OF THE SUNROOF, MY WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS AFFECTED. THE CAR HAD TO BE DRIED OUT, I CONTINUE TO HAVE MORE AND MORE THINGS GO WRONG WITH THIS VEHICLE. IT CONTINUES TO LEAK WATER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR, ROOF (COMES DOWN LIKE A WATERFALL), ETC. NOW I HAVE NOTICED MY CAR BATTERY RUNNING HIGHER AND MY FRONT HEAD LAMP TURNS ON AND OFF. COULD MAKE THIS CAR VERY DANGEROUS! *TR
