| 2000 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP | I BOUGHT MY 2000 CHEVY MALIBU FROM ROD AND TY'S ALL STAR AUTO IN PUYALLUP, WA ON 7/5/05. I BOUGHT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY/REPAIR INSURANCE. I HAVE PUT OVER $600 OF REPAIRS INTO MY CAR, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT I NEED A NEW FUEL PUMP, WHICH IS ANOTHER $756.26 AND THE WARRANTY PEOPLE WILL ONLY PAY $425 FOR A SUBSTANDARD PART. I ALSO HAVE SOME WIRES I NEED TO HAVE REPLACED, THE A/C HAS NEVER WORKED, EVEN THOUGH THEY TOLD ME IT DID, THE CD PLAYER DESTROYS MY CDS AND SOMETIMES JUST WON'T PLAY THEM AT ALL, AND I HAVE A SQUEAKY SOUND COMING FROM THE STEERING OR SUSPENSION ON THE FRONT END OF MY CAR. I PAID OVER $13,000 FOR THIS CAR WHEN IT WAS 5 YEARS OLD AND HAD 74K MILES ON IT (I GOT SCREWED) AND NOW ALL THESE PROBLEMS ARE COMING UP ON IT. THE EVEN CR*PPIER PART IS, I STILL OWE $9000 ON IT AND IT'S ONLY WORTH $2500 ON TRADE IN. WHAT THE HECK AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THIS LEMON PIECE OF CR*P CAR? I'M SUPER ANGRY AND WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER AMERICAN CAR EVER! BY THE WAY, I CHECKED CARFAX AND 11 RECORDS CAME UP FOR THIS CAR! SHOULD I PAY THE $19.99 TO FIND OUT ABOUT MY CAR, OR IS 11 RECORDS PRETTY NORMAL? SHOULD I WORRY?! *NM |
