Consumer Description

UPON STARTING THE CAR, THE GAUGE LIGHTS FLASH AND BELLS DING, AND THE GAS GAUGE FLUCTUATED WILDLY. HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES. SO FAR, IT HAS STOPPED DOING THAT PRETTY QUICKLY. THE LAST TIME, I DID NOTICE THE CAR SEEMED TO HAVE A SLIGHT WHISHY NOISE AND SEEMED LIKE THE POWER WAS WEAK. IN THE PAST THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW TIMES THAT THE CAR WOULD CONTINUE RUNNING AFTER I TURNED IT OFF. THE BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFT HAS TO BE JIGGLED A LITTLE TO BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY.
