Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING I COULD HEAR A NOISE WHICH I THOUGHT WAS THE TRANSMISSION THEM I COULD SMELL A FAINT SMELL OF BURNING PLASTIC. THEN THE BATTERY SAVER LIGHT CAME ON. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN. NEVER MADE IT. GOT ABOUT 2 MILES AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. THE BRAKES WOULD ENGAGE ON THEIR ON THEIR OWN FINALLY THE CAR STARTED TO STALL AND COASTED TO A STOP. WHEN STOPPED THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE RUNNING SLOWLY. HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO DEALER AT MY COST. THEY SAID ALTERNATOR WAS BURNED UP AND IT ALSO BURNED UP THE BATTERY. EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL PAY FOR ALTERNATOR BUT NOT THE BATTERY. CAR HAS 43000 MILES.
