About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
Bought this horrible car for $4,300 of financial aid money with "as is, no warranty". owner said he'd fix the problem but did not even though he's not obliged to, but he went against his words for fixing the car. He said his mechanic will buy the new hose for the engine which he did, but did not put in a filter as said. Then they did not fix the oxygen sensor or put on new brake pads or rotors as said. The brakes and rotors are severely damage, and the oxygen sensor is busted. The coolant & anti-freeze tube burst, the left blinker blinks really fast, the smog light button doesn't work, the wheel alignment is off. It is just a terrible car I have bought wrongly.

Initially car had minor electrical issues, I.e. clock would not work, problems with passenger side power windows. Right wheel hub assembly had to be replaced. Check engine light, surging and stalling at idle, upon filling gas tank, it would stop every gallon of gas put in, faulty intake manifold gasket had to be replaced. New spark plugs, air filter, clogged throttle body. Car now stalls/dies at idle when first starting up, outside temp gauge works intermittently, car suddenly loses power at intersections, loses power when making turns, jerks while driving at low speeds, feels like breaks are being applied driving downhill at highway speeds, air conditioner causes rpms to go below 750 and surge. These cars are a death trap on wheels and need to be fixed or replaced at no cost to the owner before someone gets killed!
