Consumer Description

THE TIRES WOULD ALL LOSE AIR WITHIN WEEKS, EVERY MONTH, DRIVEN OR NOT, AND STILL DO. FROM 4 TO 20 POUNDS OF AIR PER TIRE, STILL DO. I THINK I HAVE ROTTEN SO CALLED NEW TIRES, AS IT WAS A NEW CAR. *JS ALSO IF I LEFT 1 INSIDE LIGHT ON BY MISTAKE OVERNITE, IT WOULD NEED A JUMP START FOR OVER 2 YEARS. AFTER ABOUT 12 OF THEM IN 6 MONTHS, THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY, NO CHARGE, AND NO MORE NEED FOR A JUMP START THE 1 TIME LEFT THE INTERIOR DASH LIGHT ON, THE OVERHEAD LITTLE 1/2 SIDE OF A LIGHT. MECHANICS ARE THE WORST I HAVE EVER USED. WORST AND WISH I NEVER GOT THE CAR. IT IS A BAD JOKE AND GETS TOPS 28 MPG REGARDLESS OF WHAT IT SAYS ON ITS LITTLE GAS KEEPER
