Consumer Description

1. The engine failed, and the engine light came on. It is available for inspection upon request. 2. It started shaking, slowing down, and it felt like it was going to stall, therefore, putting myself and others at risk. To this day, once in awhile I continue to feel it shake. 3. I've spoken to a mechanic about it, and he knew of this issue. He gave me information about it and referred me to the manufacturer. No others have inspected it. 4. The Dept of Motor Vehicles, and it failed inspection today on 7/2/22. 5. Check engine light appeared when the problem first started. They first appeared back around November 2021. Note: The spark plugs and coils were replaced 3 times in an effort to resolve this issue, and after that I found out that there was an issue reported with this back in 2011-2013 and is still occurring even though the company has stated that they fixed the problem according to my research.
