| Description of the problem | Since i bought this vehicle, i have had to take to multiple dealers, that could never remedy the "hard jerking, missed gear shifting and repetitive engine light warning and complete engine shutdowns". I now have a vehicle, that i'm told the only fix is to completely repair the transmission, but when the vehicle was under warranty, i was told a computer reprogram would fix the issue. I performed a vin audit, and some of the visits to the multiple dealers don't reflect the actual service, but i have my documents. Now i have a negative equity vehicle that i fear to drive, at the moment i just took the car to the dealer, they looked at it and now the engine light is off. I have oral fear the inconsistencies of this vehicle, so i have purchased a new vehicle, until i get a resolve. I took the car to the dealer after multiple complete loss of power on i-80 while coming back from a family trip from nyc. Going 65 mph to have the vehicle loss complete power is insane. The only resolve was to pull over, wait, and try again. |
