Description of the problem	Where to begin with this car. All 4 valve stems needed to be replaced. I was losing pressure in my tires, and mechanic said they were corroded. Then my tiptronics did not work, also when you shifted in to gear, it didn't want to move. Had the whole shifting lever component replaced. Lots of trouble with the doors not opening right, then when closing the sensor doesn't always work. Almost had my kids get caught in the door. If the car is even on the slightest slope the door won't close. While driving down the road at 55mph the car just shut off. No power steering! Very dangerous. I had to rent a car to go on vacation, i didn't feel safe enough to drive on the interstate with it. Happened may times. They couldn't find anything wrong with it. Now i think the transmission is going. I am so frustrated with this car!
