Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had multiple ongoing problems with this vehicle. . i have had to bring it in four times for an inoperative horn. i would discover that horn was not working, i'd bring it in and it would function, then a couple of months would pass and again it would be inoperative. they finally replaced the harness, and it has been working for 2 straight months. this might not seem like a big deal, but it is a safety issue. i have brought it in twice for a broken ignition wire. the first time they were unable to locate the problem. the car was released to me and two days later i had it towed in because it was dead. i have had break issues, my breaks were apparently warped and not functioning properly.the latest thing to go was the fuel pump. i was driving on the highway, in the middle lane, during rush hour when the car just stopped. i had no where to go and was stuck in the middle. a frightening experience. i am now told that they don't know when my car will be fixed, nor are they willing to provide me with alternate transportation. am i just supposed to acceptt that all of this goes wrong with my 2001 car? i bought a new car so i would have safe and reliable transportation. this has yet to happen. these problems have plagued me since the beginning and its only getting worse. i am at kelly nissan with a major issue an average of once every 3 months. i do not believe this car is safe to operate. what are my rights as a consumer?*ak
