Description of the problem | This vechical is being financed through central auto sales of hot springs, arkansas. This vechical has serious issues, i contacted central auto about my car not functioning properly. It kept stalling on freeway that i was barely missed by a diesal truck hitting me. I told them it was the throttle body control power train that's keep stalling. They picked the car up kept it for 2days didn't fix it but wanted to charge me $344 for repairs that wasn't done. Got car back in same position and it stalled again on me in middle of freeway almost causing a crash. I had to buy my part and had someone to put the throttle body on. Now it's the steering wheel it won't turn properly it's so hard to turn like it's lock cause it make a clicking sound before it completely lock. I contacted the dealership and told them what the problem was and they sent me a text told me to do whatever i want. This vechical is a hazard to drive. But they want $210 car note payment for a non functioning car. I asked could i trade it back in to them got no reply only about a car payment which i never missed a payment. And it also rains in the car you can here the water in the doors and the floor be soaked. |
