Consumer Description

WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL RECURRENT PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE, YET NONE OF THE RECURRENT PROBLEMS HAS BEEN COVERED BY ANY MANUFACTURERS RECALLS. WE HAVE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY REPEATEDLY AND HAVE HAD CONTINUAL ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. WE HAVE HAD CONSTANT AND RECURRING PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ALL OF THE ORIGIANL BRAKING COMPONENTS AND YET WE CONTINUE TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM. WE ARE NOW EXPERIENCING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND HAVE FOUND THAT THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN IN MARCH 1994 IDENTIFYING THE VERY PROBLEM WE ARE EXPERIENCING. YET, THERE HAD BEEN NO RECALL. THIS CAR HAS PROBLEMS TOO NUMEROUS TO MENTION, AND IT HAS COST US A SMALL FORTUNE TO REPAIR ALL OF THE MALFUNCTIONS.
