Consumer Description

FOR THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF MY CLUTCH HAS BEEN LOSING ALL RESISTANCE. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS COLD AND AT TIMES I AM UNABLE TO PUT MY CAR INTO GEAR. SOMETIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE AT STOP LIGHTS OR EVEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. EVERY TIME I TAKE MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AIM TOLD THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. EVENTUALLY THEY REPLACED MY CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER ABOUT 8 MONTHS AGO THE FIRST TIME. PROBLEM SEEMED TO RESOLVE THEN ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO IT STARTED DOING IT AGAIN. WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG. AFTER MULTIPLE TRIPS TO DEALERSHIP THEY FINALLY AGREED TO REPLACE MASTER CYLINDER AND DISCOVERED THE SLAVE CYLINDER IS LEAKING. VEHICLE BACK IN THE SHOP FOR THE PAST WEEK REPLACING SLAVE CYLINDER. ANY PERSPECTIVE DART BUYERS OUT THERE, I REALLY CAUTION AGAINST THIS PURCHASE. THIS IS ONLY ONE OF MULTIPLE ISSUES I HAVE HAD. ON A SIDE NOTE, I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW IN JULY 2012 WITH 120 MILES ON IT. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD 2 IGNITION COILS REPLACED, 2 CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDERS, SLAVE CYLINDER, 3 TURBOS, CATALYTIC CONVERTER ALL REPLACED. BUYER BEWARE. *TR
