Description of the problem | The engine stalls at odd times making the vehicle, which has power assisted brakes and steering, difficult to control. The dash rattles constantly. The dash was replaced in an attempt to fix the stalling problem but it also rattles constantly. My wife and i have contacted the manufacturer and they displayed blatant disregard for our problem by saying that they were going to abide by their 3 year/ 36000 mile warranty( which is exactly what they are not doing, since the vehicle is still not repaired). This vehicle is dangerous! |
