I purchased tis car in June 1999. I ask the dealer before I drove it out of the yard if this car had been serviced, they stated it had. I drove the car on tues. The 15, and it stopped. And had to be towed, I was told it was the battery. I was out on sat. The 4th of July and it shut off in the middle of B'way. It had to be towed, I was told it was the altenator, I was leaving the mall in paramus N.J. in Aug.1999 and it shut off I called for a tow and got boosted to get home. It shut off on me again in later Sept. Each time I was told it was a wiring problem. On November the 22, they picked it up again andi was again told it was a wiring problem. On Jan, the 25 I was enroute to work and it shut off and had to be towed, at this time I would not pick it up because I told them I was going to court, because I had been sold a beautiful lemon. The swore I wold not hav E another problem ands I brought it home. Only to find the front defogger was not working and I has told them about it before. On March the 21, I tried to start the car and nothing. They said the battery had corrosion on it. They also said the oil pan needed to be replaced. I found after I purchased the car had been in an accident in the front. I was not told this. Now the saleman that sold it to me is trying to offer me some kind of deal. I truly need some legal advise as soon as possible. Thank you.
