Engine blew. All the warnings lights are on across the dashboard. We bought this car used for our son and after having it for about a 18 months the engine blew. The dealer that fixed it said he should have paid attention to the warning light. My son changed the oil on time always and the lights never went out. Tried to get the lights out to no avail. Paid $2800 to have used engine put in by the dealer and the dash lights are still on. Some sort of electrical problem because heat/defroster only work on high even after replaced engine installed. This has been a nightmare for a young man with his first car.

Brake lights keep blowing out. And the lights on the digital odometer as well as the clock on the cd player go out briefly. I am also experiencing problem with the gas gage. It goes up to full and then drops to E and does this over and over quite rapidly. I have also been unhooking my battery everytime I get out of my car because if I don't, my head lights come on and won't shut off causing my battery to drain.
