Consumer Description

I TRY TO PUT A SEAT BELT ON A CHILD IN THE BACK SEAT AND IT DOSE NOT WORK AT ALL. THE STEERING ON MY AVEO IS ALSO NOT SAFE IT FEELS AS IF MY AXEL ON MY CAR IS GOING TO BRAKE? ALSO THIS CAR HAS CAUGHT ON FIRE AS I WAS ON THE FREEWAY COMING FROM WORK. I HAVE REPLACE THE CADILLAC CONVERTER ON THIS CAR AS WELL AS 2,000 OTHER REPAIRS INTO MY CAR. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS KNOWING THAT ONE DAY WHEN I GET IN MY CAR IT MAY CAUGHT ON FIRE IF IT GET TO HOT. IT VERY SAD ALL I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS GO TO SCHOOL AND WORK GET HOME SAFE GUARANTEED EVERY DAY.
