Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Car starts driving rough and shaking. first time at 350 miles and they replaced fuel pump and something else to do with gas. second time at 1215 they replaced the spark plugs. third time at 1600 miles they couldn't determine what was happening or causing but quessed something to do with 3rd cyclinder. they drove it till it happened again around 1900 with a black box and it showed everything it was doing. they have decided to replace the whole motor. we want a different car but they so far won't do that. this started at 350 miles and seems to happen about everytime we refuel and drive a far distance. during the week it only goes short trips in town. how lemony does it have to be???
