| 2004 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM | THERMOSTAT HOUSING BUSTED FOR THE 3RD TIME!!! *TR |
| 2009 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING | WENT TO AN APPOINTMENT, CAME BACK AND CAR WOULD NOT START. HAD TO HAVE IT JUMPED. A FEW MONTHS LATER WENT TO A STORE, CAME BACK OUT CAR WOULD NOT START HAD IT JUMPED AGAIN. HAD THE BATTERY CHECKED AND IT SHOWED A DRAIN ON THE BATTERY BUT COULDN'T FIND THE CAUSE. AFTER HAVING IT JUMPED THE NEXT TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOR A BRIEF TIME THEN WENT OUT. NEXT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STOPPED RUNNING. HAD IT JUMPED AGAIN, IT WOULD TURN OVER BUT DIE AGAIN. FINALLY HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED. TOOK IT TO ONE SHOP AND THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. NOW IT IS BEING CHECK AT ANOTHER SHOP. SINCE THIS IS THE ONLY TRANSPORTATION I HAVE, I HAVE HAD TO CANCEL APPOINTMENTS AND RELY ON OTHERS FOR OVER A WEEK. THIS CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT IT AND I FEEL THAT I WAS SOLD A LEMON. UPDATED 05/02/12 *BF THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED.
