Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Shortly after owning the car, i noticed that brakes seemed insufficient for the vehicle. i took it to the dealer a few times to get checked, but they denied any thing being wrong. while driving when the brakes are applied, the vehicle does not stop at a sufficient time. i also had to buy several tires since the purchase date, because the tires would get leaks by simple road debris such as glass and metal pieces. i reported my problems in person and by phone to the dealer i bought from, but they would not give me any information about the car's history. they only stated that all necessary changes were made in december the month before i bought the car. i also told them about the shifting in the steering wheel when driving, but they disregarded the complaint about the steering and the inappropriate stopping of the vehicle.*ak (dot number: w2b0irb tiresize: p215/50r16) |
