Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving the car on the hwy. when we reached 65 mph like a lot of these other people are saying but it was my distributor that went out. since i have a manual transmission it would start and drive but every time it reached 65 mph or 3400 rpm the engine would sputter and stall out. also i have had to put a second engine in the vehicle due to a timing belt slipping and breaking the lower unit off the car. the air conditioner pulley had 5 screws break off causing the a/c to blow out, i had to replace it . the window pulley system cable broke causing the manual window to not roll up or down on drivers side. also the wiring going to the headlights are messed up, the lights work but you have to raise the hood and mess with the back of the halogen to get it to come on. there is an unusual amount of rust on the drivers side rear on the frame. my fuel gauge when full only reads 3/4. about 2 weeks after having the car a spring in the drivers seat began poking me in the back. i got a seat from a junk yard. i have paid for all the repairs on the car so far and am looking for either retribution or someone to help with these problems from re-occurring. my incint date is when thing began to happen and till this day i am fighting battles like the tachometer begins jumping around when running at constant speeds w/o engine revving or anything. one more thing the haze on the window has caused it almost impossible to drive at night. *nm
