Consumer Description

SUNROOF HAD DEFECTED DRAIN TUBES. DUE TO THE DRAIN TUBES BEING DEFECTED, IT CAUSED A MAJOR LEAK IN THE SUNROOF AND ENDED UP FLOODING THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. DUE TO THE FLOODING, IT SHORTED OUT MY PASSENGER AIR BAG. MY PASSENGER AIR BAG IS NOT FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY. ALSO, THE ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON EVEN AFTER THE PROBLEMS ARE FIXED. THE ENGINE HAS BEEN FIXED NUMEROUS TIMES AND THE PROBLEMS STILL COME BACK. THE ENGINE IS FAULTY. PROBLEMS KEEP ARISING WITH THE ENGINE IN GENERAL. I HAD THE CAR LOOKED AT NUMEROUS TIMES AND ITS ALWAYS THE SAME PROBLEM BEING FIXED
