Consumer Description

THE SERPENTINE BELT PULLY HAS BROKEN TWICE, RESULTING IN VEHICLE BEING TOWED TWICE, THERE IS A CONSTANT THUD FROM THE GAS TANK WHEN ACCELERATING, STOPPED DRAINS FROM THE "AC" ARE A CONTINOUS PROBLEM, CAR STUTTERS AT TURNPIKE SPEEDS AS WELL AS NORMAL CITY DRIVING, CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 22 TIMES IN 27 MONTHS, TRIED TO GET INFORMATION CONCERNING "LEMON LAW" BUT WAS ASKED TO "GIVE US THE CHANCE TO MAKE IT RIGHT" .HAVE HAD A NIAGRA FALLS FROM UNDER THE DASH TWICE SINCE THEY "FIXED THE PROBLEM" CAR VIBRATES AT TURNPIKE SPEEDS. DOOR LOCKS BREAK/FOUL SMELL WHEN THE "AC" COMES ON, ENGINE SERVICE LIGHTS COME ON FOR NO REASON, THE VAN WAS LEASED, AND TO GET OUT OF THE LEASE WOULD INVOLVE SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS. I WOULD TAKE MY 7 YEAR OLD BONNEVILLE ON TRIP BEFORE I WOULD TAKE MY 2 YEAR OLD VAN. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS? *AK
