Description of the problem | It? S been at least 8months since i? Ve driven my own car because of all the safety hazards on it and i am pregnant. I feel to scared to drive it thinking that something may happen to me because the car wants to act up. Since about a month after i had financed the car i noticed that the air bag light was on and the transmission light would pop on and off. The car started to stay at a certain speed limit and would not accelerate no matter how hard or long i pressed on the gas pedal. I would then have to pull over to the side of the road and turn my car off and then turn it back on. This was ongoing for months.. It was my only transportation to work and i didn? T have the money to get a new car after just financing one and being young in the military. I had took it to my dealership when this happened and they told me that the transmission light would come up because the sensor for my oil wasn't reading and it was nothing to worry about and my air bag light came up because someone in the backseat must've stepped on it and it would still work but the light would be there. A lot of [xxx] but at the time i didn't know much so i went off of what they said. Later on the light would go on and off. For the first 6 month i believe i had replaced my lights 8 times thinking that it was normal to change it that often. Again i didn't know much about cars. But after getting it checked the dealership had told me i have wiring issues and i my head lights and highbeams don? T work on the left hand side. And after letting a friend use my car for a day i believe they've gone out completely. Today i went to drive my car literally 5min away from my house to the store to just turn it on and my car started shaking while i was driving it. Oh and my battery has gone out before on me a couple of times in the past and it did that to me today while i was on a hill which was really dangerous.
