Description of the problem	My first complaint is the a/c unit went out in some time after oct. 2013 when we purchased the car. And no one wants to respect the fact it had only 30,000 miles on it. The second complaint is the engine cuts out every so often about once every month after you start it put it in gear and begin to roll the car just shuts off. It happened three times in one parking lot while in texas for cancer treatment! I love my car but not the fact no one wants to take responsibility for the errors in it's systems.
