Description of the problem | I just bought my chevy cruze on dec 18th 2016 and on dec 24th 2016 my car wouldn't start while in park, no warning lights, no peeping, no nothing just would not start, i waited a few minutes then it started. I drove about 10 or more miles to my dads was there about 5 minutes got in my car to leave, same thing, wouldn't start, again no peeping, no warning lights nothing,waited about 3 to 5 minutes and it started. I immediately took it to the dealer, they told meto bring it in the following sat which was dec. 31, 2016, the car started the rest of that week no problem. Took the car in on dec. 31, 2016, they still have my car and it is january 7th, 2017, they can't find what is wrong. I have since done research on this car and found out it is the most unreliable car out there. I drive an 82 year old lady to her appointments and i can't risk being in an accident because of car problems. I got rid of a 1994 ford escort because of it breaking down all the time, now it sounds like i just traded that in for the same damn thing just a different make and model. I am not dealing with it, i'm taking the car back one way or the other. Very disappointed in dealership selling me this car, specifically told them i needed a safe reliable car and they sell me the worst rating car on the damn lot. Never ever will i buy a chevy or a ford again. We will see how the dealer makes this right if i go back to them or give them a good review. It has been 7 days now and they still have my car and everyday i'm told the same thing, don't know what the problem is, don't know when we will give you your car back. Much longer dealing with this and they can talk to my attorney. I don['t want the car back, trade it in or give me my money back. This is bull. |
