Consumer Description

CAR WOULD NOT START AND HAD TO JUMP OFF. WHEN I DID THIS I WENT TO TURN OFF AND HAD THE KEY OUT AND THE CAR KEPT RUNNING FOR AROUND A MINUTE BEFORE FINALLY STALLING. DID THIS SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE SAME RESULT. I THEN TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP. AFTER A DAY THEY CALLED AND INFORMED ME THAT THE WINDSHIELD WAS ALLOWING WATER IN AT THE PASSENGER SIDE AND FUSE PANEL UNDER GLOVE BOX WAS FULL OF WATER AND CORRODED. THEY ADVISED A NEW WINDSHIELD AS MINE HAD A SMALL STAR CRACK IN IT AND NEEDED TO BE RESEALED. THAT ALONG WITH RECOMMENDING A NEW FUSE PANEL. THEY CHECKED ALL DRAIN LINES FOR SUNROOF AND SAID THEY WERE FINE. PAID THE BILL FOR THIS AT $799.58 WITH ASSURANCE THAT WATER ISSUE WAS FIXED. WELL ONE WEEK LATER AND THE FIRST RAIN SINCE AFTER SITTING IN LIGHT RAIN FOR 2 HOURS AND DRIVING 20 MINUTES I NOTICED WATER DRIPPING INTO BOTH FLOORBOARDS FROM A POST. I WILL BE TAKING BACK TO DEALERSHIP TOMORROW WITH THEM STILL NOT AKNOWLEDGING ANYTHING ABOUT WATER PROBLEMS.
