Consumer Description

ON THE WEEKEND OF 6/9/12, MY VEHICLE BEGAN GIVING STARTING PROBLEMS AND SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALERSHIPS SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS CLOSED SO I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY 6/11/12. I MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS ON THAT DAY TO HAVE THE VEHICLE CHECKED OUT BUT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT KEPT GIVING ME A RUN AROUND. THE VEHICLE SPENT THE NIGHT AT THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS CHECKED THE FOLLOWING DAY. I RECEIVED A CALL THAT MY VEHICLE IS READY AND WAS INFORMED THAT A FLASH WAS DONE AND A NEW COMPUTER HAD TO BE ORDERED THAT'S WHY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. LEFT THE DEALERSHIP AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF ONCE AGAIN WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART IT WAS GIVING THE HARD START ONCE AGAIN. ON 6/16/12 THE VEHICLE WAS FULLY UN-OPERATIONAL AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT SAT THERE UNTIL THE PART ARRIVED AND WAS INSTALLED.
