WEll I had the car for a year fine no major prob.

but this winter there was a snow storm

and i had to go pick up my 2 kids

When we got into the car.....

i went to drive off

and my tires were spinning....

well I finally got out

And after 1 block

the tire actually fell off my car completely

no dangling

while I was trying to stop (with one working brake)

I stopped, ending up in the entrance of mc Donalds......

I called ppl and the police came

and while they were towing the axle broke

I got it fixed

and bout 2 weeks later there was a storm we got 2ft of snow (3:oo pm)and i was coming home from work....

and I hit a pot hole

i was fine till bout a mile away the shock absorber like detached or something like that the police came and when they towed the car the tire fell right off along with some other parts

such as brakes

tell me about mad

i was flipping a sh*t

and they ended up giving me my money back and gave me all new parts

I haven't had a prob

apparently

the clamps that are suppose to hold on the tire and the shock absorber, were cracked the 1st time was when the tires spun they bent and cracked

2nd the pothole

now is when it is their fault bout 2 days latter

when I drove no snow perf weather

my cars brakes gave up

they wouldn't apply

I had to stop by shifting into '1 speed' and had to pull very gently up on the e-brake for the brakes to tighten

I had it towed

and i bought it to a sep garage

and they figured out when they put on my tire the cars brake wasn't fitted right and another tire disconnected...oh and the cars parts were soooo worn that I could pull the parts in half... thats bull sh*t haha

don't buy one
