| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While on active duty in the army, i purchased a used 2000 pontiac sunfire in georgia. the car began giving me problems only 6 months after the purchase. luckily, i forced the dealership to pay for a warranty because i had to have 3 major repairs within a 11/2 after that. unfortunately, shortly after the warranty was up, i discover numerous other problems with the automobile, including the recall. this car is truly a lemon! i do not believe i should have to suffer with this defective car. i owe over 3 times the value of the car. even though i have all the documentation to support my good care and maintenance, no one will touch this car because it has so many other defects besides the recall (front end suspension issues, fuel tank). i am a disabled veteran now with only a small pension to support myself and two children. this car has been a nightmare since i bought it and fixing the ignition switch is not going to fix this lemon. i have put over $3000 in repairs on this car over the last few years aside from the monthly financed payments of $282 x 3yrs=$10,152 and i still owe $7800. the car is only valued at $2150. and when dealers look at the history of problems behind this car, they don't even want to give me $2000.*ak |
