| Description of the problem | The engine was repaired, and while the engine was being worked on i repaired the steering, not knowing it was a recall. When i found out i went back to the dealership that did the work and got a printout of receipt showing that i paid for that recall, also advised that i has having problems with the lighting system for the car. Well it has been months later, can't seem to get a response from in regards to my refund and i was advised that i would have to pay to get the lights checked. I have had my lights to go completely out while driving on the highway. That includes interior and exterior lights. I nave had the inside lights to go off and come back on seconds later. I have had just the outside lights to go out for at least five minutes while driving on the highway going home. I have had the lights replaced and they keep going out. |
