Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE TAKEN OUR CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP BACK AND FORTH SINCE 06/19/00. EVERY TIME WE TAKE IT BACK THEN HERE IS A NEW PROBLEM WITH OUR VEHICLE . AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS FIXED IT STILL WAS LEAKING COOLANT AND NOT RETAINING IT. THEY SAID WHEN I PICKED MY VEHICLE UP THEY SAID IT NEEDS A WATER PUMP. NOT ONLY HAVE WE SPENT 1129.86 IN THE MATTER OF 4 WEEKS BUT THEY WANTED AN ADDITIONAL 275 -300 MORE FOR THE WATER PUMP. I FEEL AS THOUGH THAT THE TRUE PROBLEM WAS THE WATER PUMP TO BEGIN WITH BUT THEY DECIDED THAT I'M NOT SMART ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON WITH CARS. I'D GREATLY APPRECIATE IT IF SOMEONE COULD INVESTIGATE THIS COMPANY OUT AND IF THEIR IS A WAY FOR THEM TO CORRECTLY FIX MY PROBLEMS OR REIMBURSE FOR MY SAME PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE IS STILL MAKING FUNNY NOISES AND STILL LEAKING COOLANT AFTER A 585.88 BILL . WE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER ON 07/17/00 BUT ITS STILL DOING THE SAME THING . THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION IN THIS MATTER.*AK
