Description of the problem | This has been an ongoing issue since i have had the vehicle regarding the tipm's unit. It first came up a few months after purchasing the vehicle in april 2013. The unit was flashed and the problem "fixed" under warranty. This january it is now not only taking 2-10 attempts to start, my gas mileage has severely decreased and there is a funny odor once the car is started. I cannot go to the dealership in my current town as there are overly innondated with work trucks for the oil field so i am forced to take my car to abilene which is an 85 mile trip each way to have any work done on it. I work for a non profit in my town and therefore drive around to not so safe places daily and hate being stuck with a car that wont start. This possible could correlate to the issues with my motor in the air ride suspension that had to be replaced in december of 2013 that luckily was covered under warranty since it had been an issue as well before the warranty mileage ended. |
