Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THIS MORNING, 4/29/15. I TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE LAST NIGHT, NO PROBLEMS. THIS MORNING WHEN I LEFT THE HOUSE TO GET THE TITLE TRANSFERRED AND VEHICLE REGISTERED, THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I GOT TO MY DESTINATION AND TURNED IT OFF, THEN TURNED IT BACK ON, THE LIGHT REMAINED ON, AND THE ABS LIGHT CAME ONE. NEITHER WILL GO OFF. I HAD A 1998 WINDSTAR THAT I SOLD DUE TO AGE BUT LOVED. I AM NOT HAPPY TO HAVE THIS ISSUE THE FIRST DAY I OWN ITS REPLACEMENT. *TR
