problem #1

Aug 152010

Freestyle 3.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 102,000 miles

due to the transmission problem I talked about in the transmission and throttle body sections, the overheating of the engine caused by the transmission short circited the ECM and the PCM (powertrain control Module) and caused complete mechanical failure of the car. The O2 sensor stopped working and just shut down the whole car! Because I owed 11,000 on the car still, I was and am unable to fix the car or trade it off for another, so I am stuck with this piece of crap lawn ornament. Anyone who buys this car is a fool, and if you own one and it hasnt broken yet, GET RID OF IT BEFORE IT DOES!!! Becuase it will!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
