Consumer Description

ENGINE TRANSMISSION LIGHT FAILED AFTER 3 MONTHS, BOTH WINDOWS HAVE FALLEN DOWN INTO DOOR, FRONT BUMPER HAS BEEN TORN OFF, ANTENA AND OTHER PLASTIC OBJECTS AROUND CAR HAVE FALLEN OFF,ABS SYSTEM LIGHT IS ON AGAIN, COVER FOR GAS TANK WILL NOT OPEN (I HAD TO PRY IT OPEN), CUP HOLDERS AND MIRROR COVERS HAVE BROKEN, INSIDE OF CAR STARTED TO BUBBLE AFTER 6 MONTHS, BECAUSE OF THE PLASTIC. ALL THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN SAN ANTONIO COULD SAY WAS THAT I DID NOT KNOW HOW TO MANAGE CAR. I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD TO TAKE A CLASS IN OPENING THE GAS COVER. ODDLY ENOUGH, MOST OF THESE THINGS STARTED TO BREAK AFTER MY TWO YEAR WARRANTY EXPIRED. ALL THEY HAD TO SAY WAS THAT "WHEN IT RAINS IT POURS". I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS CAR TO ANYONE
