Consumer Description

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED HONDA CORD WITH PERFECT CARFAX AND ALL STOCK PARTS. THE BATTERY DIED ON IT TWICE AND IT FAILED TO START WITHIN TWO DAYS OF BUYING IT. I WENT TO REPLACE THE BATTERY AND AS SOON AS I DID MY 3RD GEAR OF MY ENGINE 'WENT OUT' ACCORDING TO THE MIDAS MECHANIC. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGH WAY AND ALMOST YANKED ME INTO THE CONCREATE STREET RAILS. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?
