I took car back the next morning after purchase, dealer claims there is nothing he can do, the engine light has been on since day one and I have taken it back twice, they replaced the differential sensor, it went off for about 10 mins and has been on ever since. Now everything else seems to be going wrong with this car.

I have had car in shop 4 different times, they changed to rotors and brakes the first time at 3,000 miles.they claim the rotors were warped from the factory. The next 2 times they claim the car is fine, the last time ( car is still in the shop since 2/15/00 this is written to you 3-09-00) they are replacing the front rotors and brakes again, they say they are replacing the defrost switch and a wiring harness, the engine drivetrain they don't know"?". I have lost time at work and I don't fell safe in the car. I refuse to take my "family" anywhere in this car!!!!!.
