Consumer Description

IN GEORGIA WE ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE EMISSIONS COMPLETED EVERY YEAR AROUND YOUR BIRTHDAY. FOR SOME REASON THE CAR WOULDN'T PASS BECAUSE OF CODES P0018, P0017, AND P0008. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON TREND WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE. SO I ASSUME IT'S A MANUFACTURER ERROR. IT'S ALSO COMMON FOR THE 2007 MODELS AS WELL. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE PROBLEM IS THE TIMING ON VEHICLE. *TR
