Consumer Description

I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JULY 2014 USED WITH 56,000 MILES ON IT. AND I ALREADY HAD IT IN THE SHOP JUST IN THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST BECAUSE THERE WAS A KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. IT SOUNDED LIKE A NORMAL "MORNING KNOCK" BUT IT WAS ALWAYS THERE AND WHEN YOU DROVE IT SOUNDED WORSE. I HAVE NOT STARTED MY CAR ALL DAY TODAY, THEN WHEN I WENT TO GO SOMEWHERE I TRIED TO START MY CAR AND IT JUST GAVE ME TICK NOISES IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. I KNOW THE BATTERY WASN'T DEAD BECAUSE THE CAR DOOR WAS OPEN AND THERE WAS THE DING NOISES AND THE LIGHTS WERE ALL ON IN THE CAR WHEN THE DOORS WERE OPEN. NOW I HAVE GOTTEN THE VEHICLE TO TURN OVER, BUT WITH A 1 YEAR OLD I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY ALMOST NEW CAR! I NEED SOMETHING FIXED. *TR
