| Description of the problem | The car had an issues with the engine and converter ... They fixed the converter and never fixed the issues with the engine that caused the converter to become clog .... When i took it into the dealer service center i told them what the issues was and they never looked into the engine, two weeks after i got my car back the engine now has a hole in the block because the never fixed the issues that caused the converter to be blocked ... This is ridiculous, and i dont have all this money they want to fix a car that was broken from the beginning and the issues started way before my warranty ended!! |
