JUST PURCHASED THE CAR, DROVE HIM WITH NO PROBLEMS, WENT FOR ANOTHER DRIVE RIGHT AFTER THE BLINKERS INSIDE NOR OUTSIDE THE CAR WOULD WORK, THEY AT TIMES WOULD WORK AFTER THIS THEN JUST NOT WORK AGAIN, AFTER DOING RESEARCH ABOUT THIS PROBLEM I LEARNED THE HAZZARD SWITCH WAS THE PROBLEM AND MAKING THE BLINKERS NOT WORK AT TIMES, I ROACH THE HAZZARD SWITCH NOW THE BLINKERS ARE JUST FINE.

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH IN CONGESTED TRAFFIC, THE ENGINE STOPPED AND SECURITY AND MAINTENANCE LIGHTS CAME ON. VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER SETTING A FEW MINUTES. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER AND TOOK IT TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP. 2 DAYS LATER VEHICLE STARTED SHUTTING OFF WHEN THE TURN SIGNAL WAS USED. NOW AT TIMES IT WONT START. CONTACTED DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT IF THE RECALLED PART COULD BE THE PROBLEM AND WAS RUDELY BRUSHED OFF. PROBLEM STILL NOT FIXED.
