well.

doesnt start after sitting for about 8 hours. as soon as it cools down it takes forever to start.

the motor is turning over. it sounded to me like a fuel problem.

towed to dealership.
dealership lets the tech take it home ( i agreed to it ). They wanted to drive it with the computer hooked up to it to see what it says. They had to tow it from his house the next morning.

They changed the crank sensor.

i got it back, next morning, didnt start.

back to dealership. The changed the fuel pump. and in doing so the tech broke the fuel supply line and had to wait for a new one.

The service manager called me and asked me to lie on the service survey when it comes in and say that they fixed it the first time. Then tried to bribe me with free rental car tickets and stuff.

Got the ccar back and guess what....didnt start.

so i went there today and told them to keep their damn car. I dont want it. its got 3000 miles on it and shouldnt have these problems. the general manager is out of town untill monday so they have my car untill then.

Lemon law takes 2-4 weeks to go through. Then they only pay off the amount i bought the car for, not the negative equity i have along with the car from trading in my last one.

So basically they had better fix my car and pay it off and extend my warranty. Or let me pick a car off the lot for free. if they buy the car back i need somehting else.

the whole situation has left a sour taste in my mouth ( like a lemon!)

i just want a reliable car. fuck speed and stereo. Im thinking about SUVs too.

i was kinda looking to go lower in price. my cruiser was 26,000 and my payments were 509 a month. I have good credit just not a lot of it.

the v6 fusions are 25,000 an up.

i wish

The reason, dealers ask ya to lie on the survey is so that COA doesnt start screamin down the dealers neck.

Also to add

If the car has been to the dealership 3 times for the same issue, They have to buy it back immediately, and To add, the General Manager has 0 say about it, Its the Service Manager who calls COA ( Chrysler of America ), and it should be very quick ( 1 - 3 days )

service manager told me he would fix it this time. i told him, good, but i dont want it, so he siad ok we will find the problem. itold him no, keep your damn car.

ford seems to have hit a home run with that car, i see them everywhere. My fiance and i were talking about giving one a whirl ... might have to go check one out ...

i was very impressed with the room on the inside. im almost 6 foot 2, and i have a bad back so i have to sit funny. there are few cars i can drive comfortably in.

thats why i liked the pt alot, tons of room for me to be comfortable.


i got in the ford today, and put the drivers seat to where it was comfy. then i put it back about another 6 inches, then got in the back seat behind it and was comfy there too.
