626 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

The electric system seems to be defective, because always something related to it is out of work. Frequently it is reflected in the air conditioning. For instance, the last time the air condition (A/C) was repaired, that repairman left the claxon and the rear defrost out of work. The A/C has been repaired too many times that it does not fit with a new vehicle. Nowadays it is out of work again. I fear that next time is the lights to be off when just driving. In incident date, next data required in this scheme, I am putting the last repair in the dealer.
