Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I bought the car used.... i now know why the man was so eager to sell at such a reasonable price. car continues to stall on me, after letting it sit and cool for approx. 20+ mins it will usually start. on one occasion the car seemed to be on fire, by the time i got pulled over, there was just a lot of smoke. after driving the car for anything over 5-10 mins it smells as if it were on fire. *tr
