THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT GO OFF. AFTER HAVING IT CHECKED BY A LOCAL CERTIFIED MECHANIC, IT WENT OFF BUT CAME BACK ON DAYS LATER.

THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR OVER ONE WEEK AND KEPT LOOKING FOR SOMETHING UNTIL THEY REPLACED MOST OF MY ELECTRICAL PARTS. WHEN I ASKED HOW MUCH THIS WOULD COST, I WAS ASKED IF I HAD A PRICE IN MIND.

KEY HAS GOTTEN STUCK IN IGNITION MULTIPLE TIMES. HAVE HAD TO DISCONNECT BATTERY AS THE CAR WAS STUCK IN ACCESSORY, AND THE BATTERY WAS STILL BEING DRAINED. HAVE NOT FOUND ANY SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. TRIED DIFFERENT KEYS, MOVING STEERING WHEEL ETC. IT'S VERY FRUSTRATING AS WE HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS. THIS STARTED ABOUT 2-3 MONTHS AGO AND THE CAR WAS AT AROUND 82K MILES
