Consumer Description

SINCE JANUARY OF 2015, MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP ALMOST ONE DOZEN TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE. WHILE DRIVING MY CAR, A LOUD SOUND GOES OFF IN THE ENGINE AND WHEN THE KEY IS TAKEN OUT OF THE IGNITION, THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING. AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT BOGS DOWN AND THE CAR COMPLETELY DIES. I'VE HAD ABOUT SIX NEW STARTERS BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN FRIED. WE'VE TAKEN MY CAR TO MULTIPLE MECHANICS AND THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHAT THE ISSUE IS. WITH A NEW STARTER IN THE CAR, IT CAN LAST TWO DAYS TO A WEEK TO A MONTH, BUT FOR FOUR MONTHS STRAIGHT IT'S BEEN A RECURRING PROBLEM. *TR
