Consumer Description

BRAKES HAVE BEEN SQUEAKING SINCE WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE CAR IS ONLY 2 WEEKS OLD, 700 MILES. I CONTACTED THE SERVICE DEPART. THEY SAID IT'S PROBABLY FROM NOT TIGHTENING THE GAS CAP. WE CHECKED AND THE CAP IS AS TIGHT AS IT CAN GET. THEY HAVE HAD THIS COMPLAINT FROM OTHER OWNERS.
