Consumer Description

MY SON PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM AN INDIVIDUAL AT A DEALERSHIP. DROVE THE CAR HOME WITH NO PROBLEMS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE SELLER DID TELL HIM THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE IMA BATTERY, BUT THAT IT DIDN'T KEEP FROM DRIVING IT. DIDN'T CRANK THE CAR FOR 2 DAYS. WHEN WE PUT THE 10 DAY TAG TO GET INSPECTION DONE IT WOULDN'T START. TOOK THE 12 V BATTERY OUT GOT IT TESTED AND SHOWED BAD BATTERY. REPLACED THE BATTERY, DROVE AROUND AND IT DIED THE STEERING STOPPED, THE LIGHTS STARTED FLICKERING AND IT WOULDN'T RESTART. WE TOOK THE NEW BATTERY OUT GOT IT RECHARGED BUT ARE UNABLE TO DRIVE IT MORE THAN 10 MILES WITHOUT IT FLOODING POWER AND FINALLY LEAVING STRANDED. IF IT WAS A STANDARD VEHICLE I WOULD SAY IT WAS THE ALTERNATE BUT THIS CAR DOESN'T HAVE THAT. THE IMA BATTERY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND WITHOUT IT THE CAR IS TRASH. WHAT CAN WE DO WITH THIS CAR? I CAN'T SELL IT, THAT WOULDN'T BE RIGHT. THE MAN WHO SOLD THIS CAR TO MY SON WAS WRONG IN DOING SO.
