Consumer Description

THE CAR HAS BEEN OVERHEATING EVER SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT. I HAD TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER AFTER A WEEK OF PURCHASING IT BECAUSE IT WAS OVERHEATING. ALTHOUGH HE WAS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO REAPIR IT BECAUSE IT WAS BOUGHT AS IS HE STILL REPLACED THE RADIATOR, BUT THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH OTHER OWNERS OF GEO STORMS AND THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS. A CONSUMER REPORT ALSO REVEALED THAT THIS WAS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. I BOUGHT THIS CAR MY SENIOR YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL AND I DEPEND ON IT NOW FOR COLLEGE. I ATTEND COLLEGE 1000 MILES AWAY FROM HOME AND I NEED A DEPENDABLE CAR, WHICH I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING. OTHER THAN THE COOLING SYSTEM THE CAR IS GREAT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS SITUATION AND THANK YOU SO MUCH.*AK
