Consumer Description

HVAC system has failed twice, upon inspecting, connections are melted. This is a fire RISK. Fuses constantly blow. Check engine light constantly comes on and after having auto zone diagnose, issues include Power Train System (P2261), anti-lock brake system - Wheel Speed Sensor (all 4) show invalid/No Signal. Constant knocking noise under the engine which related to the Rod bearing recall. This car is a FIRE and SAFETY HAZARD waiting to happen. My outlets barely produce power, my lights flicker constantly, my battery has been replaced multiple times, as well as the HVAC once.
