Consumer Description

TWICE AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS, MY CAR WAS OILS NOT START AT THE PUMP. EACH TIME I HAD TO WAIT SEVERAL MINUTES BEFORE IT WOULD ACTUALLY START. THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED, I WAITED, IT STARTED THEN IMMEDIATELY QUIT AGAIN. THERE IS A VERY HARD START WHEN IT ATTEMPTS TO START AS WELL. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THEN IMMEDIATELY WENT OFF. I TOOK THE CAR DIRECTLY TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT HAD TO REMAIN RUNNING UNTIL THEY COULD GET IT IN. THIS WAS 540P ON FRIDAY, MAY 25TH BEFORE A HOLIDAY.
