| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The engine of my car shut off, and upon being towed to the dealer, they got back to me to say that the engine failed as a result of drivers error from a downshift from 4th to 2nd. the dealer said that this was identified by the car's computer system. however, after talking to many mechanics, i have been instructed that this problem could never have been identified by a car's computer, and this was just an out for the manufacturer and dealer. i am not satisfied with their answer, and am looking for a way to protest their decision. for right now, i was stuck paying for the total bill which exceeded $6000. |
