Description of the problem | Starting in 09 when i purchased this car i've had problems and still to the current date (2/26/2013) i've had to replace the tie rods multiple times which result in new brakes and tires, which aren't cheap for this car! I recently went in today to get my cat converter replaced because the sensor was melting oh and again they tell me i need new brakes(shocker)-this is a safety issue none the less. I've spent about 7 grand in repairs all for the car to just be "ok" to drive for the time being. I'm not sure why this car was never recalled because it's a piece of junk! I have saved all the receipts from the dealership and it's astronomical how many times i've had to bring it in, let's just say the "guys at the shop" all know me by name.. |
