My car was in a flood in May 2015 in Houston. Insurance should have totaled it but they didn't. The battery caught on fire after I traveled from OK to TX to a funeral. Wal-Mart replaced my battery. In October I was supposed to be in KY for a TAR job when my car started mis-firing and turned out it was the coils. In November I was cleaning the car and listening to the radio when I heard static in the radio; I tried to start the car and it wouldn't turn over. I put the car on a charger and it never would charge. I then took the battery back to Wal-Mart because it was no good; which by the way was the very last time I could take it back because my 1 year warranty date was soon approaching in the Month of Novermber! After appealing the case for the flood the insurance agreed to replace the computer. Today I was listening to the radio and it made the same old static noise again and I tried to turn the car over; mind you I only went out to smoke a cigarette and within that short amount of time the car wouldn't turn over! I am starting a new job on Monday and once again this car has let me down.

This is the 5th time I have had this problem in the 8 years I have had this auto. I only have 37,000 miles on it and I have enjoyed driving it. But it is probably time to move on without it. We'll see what the repair cost is this time. I will probably go back to Cadillac which I drove before this one.
