Consumer Description

MY CAR STALLED ON THE STREET. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. CALLED DEALER, THEY SAID TURN OFF AND TURN ON TO RESET. THIS WORKED, HOWEVER IT CONTINUED TO HAPPENED UNTIL I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER. THEY SAID IT WAS THE BALANCE SHAFT AND COST $6000. I CALLED CORPORATE AND GAVE THEM LAW SUIT DOCUMENTATION, ,EMAILS, TESTIMONIALS AND BULLETINS SHOWING THE ISSUES OF THIS VEHICLE. BECAUSE OF THE MILES AND CAR NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, THEY WOULD REDUCE COST BY 25%. THAT IS STILL TO HIGH. THIS CAR AT THE TIME SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED AND THE DEALER RECOMMENDED TURNING OFF/ON THE CAR TO RESET. FOR A NEW CAR TO BE GIVEN THAT ADVISE IS INSANE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE THEIR TONS OF INFORMATION ON THE WEB,EMAILS AND ETC. REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I NEED MY CAR FIXED ASAP. I CAN'T AFFORD THIS HIGH REPAIR. *TR
