NHTSA Complaint #10735355 — 2007 JEEP LIBERTY

I PURCHASED A CAR FROM U.S. AUTO SALES IN COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA ON JUNE 12TH 2015. THE EVENING I TOOK THE CAR HOME THE GAS GAUGE WAS NOT AT THE EMPTY MARK AND THE CAR SHUT OFF AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND INFORMED THEM OF THIS AND THEY PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT IT IS AN ONGOING CHRYSLER ISSUE AND TO NOT LET THE GAS TANK TO GET BELOW A QUARTER TANK. THEY PROCEEDED TO RESET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. 2 WEEKS LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. SO I TOOK TO A LOCAL AUTO STORE TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTICS RUN AND WAS INFORMED THAT A WHEEL BEARING WAS NEEDED, A CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND A FUEL LINE BECAUSE AT A CERTAIN LEVEL THE GAS WILL NOT REACH THE ENGINE. TODAY IN SOUTH CAROLINA THE TEMPERATURE IS WELL OVER 100 DEGREES AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING. I HAVE HAD MORE ISSUES OUT OF THIS CAR WITHIN THE 30 DAYS I HAVE HAD IT. I DID PURCHASE A WARRANTY ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO BEAR SOME OF THE COST TO FIX A VEHICLE I JUST PURCHASED. I AM NOW WAITING ON A CALL FROM THEIR MECHANIC ONCE HE GETS THE PARTS IN TO DO THE REPAIRS. I BELIEVE I WAS KNOWINGLY SOLD A LEMON. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT IF I HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THE CAR TO BRING IT IN AND I WILL BE GIVEN A LOANER CAR. WELL WHEN I DID BRING IT IN I WAS BASICALLY TOLD TO GET IN LINE AND WAIT BECAUSE THEY HAD NO LOANER VEHICLES. NOW I AM BASICALLY STUCK WITH A VEHICLE WITH NO AIR AND IF THE GAS GET PAST A HALF TANK THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF AND IF NOT REPAIRED SOON COULD POTENTIALLY BLOW UP WITH ME AND MY CHILDREN IN IT. YES I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER TO REQUEST ANOTHER VEHICLE AND WAS BASICALLY BRUSHED OFF AND TOLD NO.
