Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD MORE PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE THAN ALL OF THE CARS I HAVE OWNED. I PURCHASED THIS CAR TO BE SAFE AND NEVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT BREAKING DOWN. I T HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP MORE THAN NOT. THE LATEST IS THAT IT STARTED VIBRATING ABOVE THE SPEED OF 45. WHO COULD FEEL SAFE IN A 3 MONTH OLD VEHICLE THAT CONTINUOUSLY HAS THINGS WRONG WITH IT? I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALEER AND THE MANUFACTOER, WHO ASSURE ME THAT THIS IS "PROBABLY THE LAST THING THAT WILL HAPPEN" I WANT TO GET MY $ BACK AND I FORWARN ALL, I AM NOT EXAGGERATING. *AK
