Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: i purchased the car on 10/09/04 with a 3mon/3,000 warranty. i have brought it into the dealership numerous times for this same complaint with no luck. they have replaced the brake pads and calipers and within a 1 week of bringing it in to the dealership my abs, trac off & service vehicle soon lights all came on. i called the dealership and made an appt and while i was driving my car at 70mph it began to vibrate out of control. i had three passangers in my car along with myself. i was able to get the car back in control but if i wasn't able to i would have hit the other cars on the highway. i was only able to drive the car at speeds of under 45mph on the highway. i brought the car to the dealership the next day was told that this would cost me almost $400 to be replaced (hub wheel assembly for my speed sensor). i was told that my 3/3 warranty would not cover this part. i have researched and found that numerous people have had complaints regarding this! obviously this should be a recalled part!! i spoke to the manager at bournival and he said that my warranty would not cover this part. he said that it didn't matter if it happened two days after i purchased the car!*ak
