Consumer Description

CAR HAS BEEN TO DEALER 3 TIMES SO FAR FOR FAILURE TO START. CAR WILL CRANK CONTINUALLY BUT NEVER START. EVENTUALLY THE CAR WILL SHUT ITSELF OFF. PCM WAS REPLACED ON FIRST REPAIR. CAR RAN FINE FOR A FEW DAYS AND THEN THE PROBLEM RESURFACED. CAR WAS BROUGHT IN AGAIN FOR REPAID AND THE TIPM AS WELL AS SOME WIRING WAS REPLACED. CAR RAN FINE AGAIN FOR TWO DAYS AND THE PROBLEM RESURFACED. HAD THE CAR TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER BUT UPON RECEIVING THE CAR THE DEALER SAID THE CAR STARTED RIGHT UP WITH NO ISSUES. THE DEALER HAD THE CAR FOR TWO WEEKS IN AN ATTEMPT TO REPRODUCE THE FAILURE WITH NO SUCCESS. CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME WITH A SUGGESTION TO CALL THEM DIRECTLY THE NEXT TIME IT FAILS TO START.
