Consumer Description

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST PROBLEM I HAVE HAD WITH THIS VEHICLE NOR WAS IT THE LAST. JUST ONE THAT I HAVE DOCUMENTED. THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY WOULD NOT START AND I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO EPPERLY TIRE AND AUTO. THE DAY BEFORE THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS AT A RED LIGHT AND IT TOOK CRANKING MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE I COULD GET IT TO START AGAIN. I WAS TOLD BY EPPERLY THAT THIS WAS BECAUSE I NEEDED A NEW STARTER AND THE WIRING IN MY VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I GOT ALL NEEDED REPAIRS. THIS DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE, THE VEHICLE IS STILL SHUTTING OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING.
