Description of the problem | Transmission is sluggish, tugging.. Taking off, not shifting or shift all at once. Even up hill, in traffic. Car speed will take off on its own. Hard to brake. Went down hugh hill, car in control tugging back so hard, the noise was so loud that we thought car was going to blow. 15yr old in car. Dealership had me drive car off lot with a temporary inspection and come back in month. Its not a temporary sticker. I couldn't take car home night i bought it. So all these things happening after taking car off lot. I went back in a couple days later. Told to buy a warranty, they reset the transmission, as if i owned the car for years. This isn't right. They prolonged helping, etc... Even asked for my car back. Then thrown in my face that it was at auction. Nobody was helping. Send letters, did a survey, calling, dropping in, etc... I documented everything. I need help!! This is a dangerous lemon and they took advantage of me. Ceo is contacted to. I need help incase i get the run around again. The car has someone else's inspection on it 7-19 come back in 4wks... What?? Day i brought it home. All these suprises! |
