NHTSA Complaint #11078498 — 2010 PONTIAC VIBE

I BOUGHT A 2010 PONTIAC VIBE AND 3 MONTHS LATER THE FRONT END OF THE CAR STARTED SHAKING REAL BAD SO I CALLED UP KOEHNE AUTO TO TELL THEM AND THEY WOULDN'T AS MUCH AS TALE IT FOR A TEST DRIVE TO SEE WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. THEY KEPT ON LOOKING AT THE FRONT END AND KEPT TELLING ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES THAT THE TIRES WERE BALD SO THEY PUT $500 DOLLARS WORTH OF TIRES ON THE CAR AND THEN I WENT BACK TO THEM AND TOLD THEM THAT THE PROBLEM WASN'T STILL FIXED SO I WENT TO MY PRIVATE MECHANIC AND HE LOOKED AT IT AND FOUND OUR THE BEARRINGS AND THE STABLIZER BAR WAS SHOT AND IT WAS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND THEY STILL ASSISTED OVER AT KOEHNE AUTO THAT IT WAS THE TIRES BEING BALED SO I DECIDED NOT TO PAY THE WHOLE AMOUNT OF THE CAR PAYMENT BECAUSE I WAS NOT GOING TO HAVE MY FAMILY OF BEING IN JEOPARDY OF BEING KILLED. I ASKED THEM TO LOWER THE CAR PAYMENT TO 250 BECAUSE OF ALL THE REPAIRS I HAD TO PAY FOR BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT GO GOOD FOR THE REPAIRS. SO I STOPPED MAKING PAYMENTS IN OCTOBET RECIEVED ONE LETTER ABOUT THEM THREATIING TO REPO THE CAR JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS AND THEY DIDN'T COME TO REPO IT UNTIL 3 MONTHS LATER ON MARCH9TH AT 6 OR 7:30 IN THE EVENING. I PAID OVER 5 GRAND BEFORE I HAD STOPPED MY PAYMENTS. I COULD NOT AFFORD THE REPAIRS PLUS THE HIGH CAR PAYMENT.OF 442.54 I FOUND OUT THERE ARE 6 RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE AND THEY DIDNT ALERT ME UNTIL A COUPLE OF DAYS BEFORE THE CAR WAS REPODE. I WOULD LIKE MY MONEY BACK FROM ALL OF THE REPAIRS I MADE PLUS THE MONEY I PAID ON THE CAR AND A NEW CAR.
