Consumer Description

MY CAR STARTED WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH BACK IN OCTOBER WITH THE KEY NOT SHUTTING OFF THE CAR AND HAVING TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO SHUT IT OFF, TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY FIXED IT, BUT NOW THINGS ARE GETTING SCARY. EVERY OTHER DAY MY CAR IS TELLING ME THAT THE ABS SYSTEMS NEEDS FIXED AND THAT THE TRACTION CONTROL NEEDS SERVICED. THE BREAKS WERE REPLACED IN DECEMBER OF 2013 AND WE WERE TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING ELSE WRONG WITH THE CAR AND NOW THIS.. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY INFORMED US THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, BUT THE LIGHTS COME ON AND GO OFF FOR NO REASON.. THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT LOCKS ALL THE TIME AND EVEN AFTER YOU UNLATCH IT, IT STAYS LOCKED FOR SOME TIME. I AM SO FRUSTRATED OVER THIS ISSUE AND CAN'T GET ANY ANSWERS ON IT. *TR
