Consumer Description

FIRST INCIDENT WAS ON 6/14/2015. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AS MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR STARTED SHAKING. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF BECAUSE IT SMELLED LIKE SMOKE. AS I TRIED TO TURN THE VEHICLE BACK ON IT WOULD NOT CUT BACK ON. THE CAR HAD TO GET TOWED AND REPAIRS HAD TO BE DONE TO THE TUNE OF $1,500.00. THE BATTERY, GASKET, PLUGS & ALTERNATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. SECOND INCIDENT WAS ON 7/17/2015. AS I WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN THE CAR STALLED & I WAS HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. ALL AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND BURST. THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL WAS PUSHED IN.
