Consumer Description

WHEN YOU TRY TO START THE CAR WHEN IT'S COLD, ALL OF THE INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON, RADIO COMES ON, AND THEN THE LIGHTS AND RADIO GO OFF AND THE POWER STEERING STOPS WORKING. AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS AND ABOUT 5 MINUTES PASS, IT WORKS PROPERLY. SOME TIMES, UNEXPECTEDLY, ALL THE LIGHTS IN THE CAR START FLASHING, THE LOCKS ON THE DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK REPEATEDLY WHILE DRIVING. WE'VE REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION, THE IGNITION SWITCH, THE ALTERNATOR, AND HAVE A BRAND NEW BATTERY (2X IN 6MO). THIS CAR IS POSSESSED! I WORRY FOR THE SAFETY OF MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER WHILE DRIVING THIS CAR.
