We got the car in Oct 4th,06.We had the car for 1 week and they had me take it in due to the engine lite going off. They did a diagnostic check to tell us why it went off. It truned out to be the torque converter and the E.G.R. valve and the o2 cencers had gone out. Ok! so the got the car the week after i got the car. I did not see my car for four long weeks. I made my first car payment Nov.4 of 06. Then that very day I got my car back the engine light went on again. I called them and they had me take it back again I didn’t see my car for two weeks.This time they said it was just the o2 cencers that made the engine lite go off. Well, I got the car back, again the lite goes off for the third time and I had another auto part store do yet another diagnostic check. They same codes came out once again. The same one”s that the dealer got a month before. So I called them and told them what ever it was that they said they fixed was not. I question about the o2 cencersand the E>G>R valveand why it was not fixed the first time the car was in? they said that o2 cencers don’t go out.I was puzzled.I went to get my oil changed and do my basic’s tires rotation, when I was told to take my car to the auto store across the street because my car had a bigger problem then what they could do . I drove it across the street and there they told me that they would not be able to let me drive my car out. They asked me to look at the reason why my car was so dangerus to drive away.They comented on how lucky I had been that I was not killed,in what would have been a very bad accident.The tie rod end on the passengerside was being held by a thread. They said who ever worked on the car was not a very good at it. At that time I called the dealer and his words where “I have no clue what to say to you, I just sell them and I don’t fix them.” but if you got problems call us on monday. Well needless to say it was a weekendand i had a car I could not driveunless I payed to get it fixed right there and then which I did.When i took the car back to them I was told that they would fix it and call me when it was done.Tow weeks went by I was called to pick up the car. This time the engine lite went off while I was still there at the dealer sevice center. I went up to pay and I almost died just to hear the cost.They had the brakes and roders done the spark plugs and wires done, and other things that had nothing to do with the tie rod, the spindle was still egged out and was not replased.The o2cencers where not changed, the engine lite was still on and the car had no power to drive over 55 mile. Well! needless to say i am still paying on a car that I can’t use and that I haveonly had for not even six month”s. I have spent over $500.00 on rental cars and plus what I haveput into this car. Ifthere is anything you can help me with, I ask you please do! I have just about run out of ideas… ThankYou!
