| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I was driving down the road and as soon as i got up to speed past 30 miles per hour it kicked into to gear really hard and i could feel the transmission barely slipping into gear..and had to have the water pump flushed it was over heating thought it was the thermostat but it was checked and fine so i had to replace the water pump...was missing a motor mount on one side and the other was corrodded.. when i are driving down the road i can hear my car 4 blocks away..brakes aren't right they don't press down like they should and half the time they just don't work...if i am lucky, i have to start braking around 2 blocks away, i may stop in time. i purchased this car on july 16,2006 and this all happened starting july 17,2006. payments have been made on time and have had two estimates as they requested for all the repairs but they still are stating i have to come up with half the money upfront and then they will tact on the rest to the end of my bill i owe to pay off the car. *jb |
