Consumer Description

"TAKATA RECALL" THIS CAR HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE FROM THE DAY WE BOUGHT IT. IT HAS HAD 4 RACK AND PINIONS, THE STRUTS REPLACED, A GEAR REPLACED IN THE STEERING COLUMN, A NEW POWER STEERING PUMP, A FUEL INJECTOR, AND TIMING CHAIN REPAIR. NOW IT IS IN THE SHOP AGAIN FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF TIMING CHAIN GONE BAD AND TENSIONERS, AS WELL AS NOW THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER IS LEAKING BACK INTO THE SYSTEM WHICH I WAS TOLD WILL CAUSE MY BRAKES TO JUST NO LONGER WORK AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. I DRIVE MY CHILDREN IN THIS CAR, I PAID OVER $25,000.00 FOR IT AND I HAVE PUT OVER $8,000.00 IN REPAIRS INTO IT. I AM NOW HAVING TO REPAIR THE BRAKE ISSUE OR CHANCE MY FAMILY BEING KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT. WHILE MY HUSBAND HAS LOST HIS JOB IN THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY. I CAN'T EVEN SALE THE STUPID CAR, BECAUSE IT IS WORHTLESS!!! I AM DISGUSTED AND DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS VEHICLE, THE MANUFACTURER FOR DOING NOTHING FOR THEIR BUYERS AND THE FACT THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NO RECALLS ON THE BRAKE ISSUE, WHEN THERE ARE MULTITUDES OF PAGES ON THE WEB OF COMPLAINTS OVER THE SAME ISSUE.
