Consumer Description

MY SATURN HAS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE A/C UNIT THE DIAL HAS GOTTEN TO WERE IT WON'T WORK AND THE DEFROST DOESN'T WORK. IT HAS BEEN LIKE THAT FOR ABOUT 7 YRS. MY HAS CAR HAS CUT OFF ON ME TWICE. ONCE THIS YEAR AND LAST YEAR. NOW THE MOST RECENT ONE WAS ON APRIL 25 2014. IT WAS AROUND 3:30 PM. HERE IN RICHMOND VA IT WAS A REALLY BAD THUNDER AND LIGHTING STORM. I STARTED TO SMELL A BURNING SMELL, THE BRAKES WERE ACTING STRANGE I WAS ABLE TO STOP AT STOP LIGHT AND WHILE I WAS A RED LIGHT I HEARD A HIGH PITCHED BEEPING SOUND AND THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. MY CAR WAS TOWED. AND THE HENRICO COUNTY BEAT AAA TO PULL IT TO ROYAL CHEVY. THE COPS HAD MY PLACED AT IMPOUND LOT. AND I FINALLY DID IT TOWED TO ROYAL CHEVY ON APRIL 26 2014. ROYAL CHEVY HAS AGREED TO PAY FOR MY RENTAL. I SAW ON THIS WEBSITE THERE ARE 10 RECALLS ON HERE AND GM HAS ONLY TOLD ME ABOUT 2 OF THE RECALLS NOT OF THE OTHER 8. *TR
