Filed Feb 15, 2024 · Suspension, Visibility · NM

I purchased the vehicle in 2021 . It was running fine at first but recently . been having alot of issues with the vehicle. When parking the vehicle and you put it in park it moves forward . also been having alot of tire blow outs one after another for the past 8 months . also sometimes it drives proper and at times it starts swerving . the ride gets bumpy. I already replaced the arm controls also aligned the car . i believe there mechanically defaulted. Also having issues with the exhaust . fuel sensor also was replaced . Codes P0411 keep popping up. Literally I have put more money then I paid for the car. financially has drained me. When called the manufacturer about recalls they said those recalls were expired . The car has become somewhat dangerous. Also I believe When purchased the vehicle the emissions says 2013 on the bill of sale says 2012 . I just recently found the documents . Is there any way to find out right information for the vehicle . thank you my name is [XXX] phone number is [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I was sold a car priced at $4,995 but when the initial contract was signed the car representative failed to keep the price the same and without consent overcharged me for the car $10,000 I called back a week later to notify them the car had went out, was in bad condition, wasn't driving, and put me and my family in harms way. Car shutoff twice in motion once while actually driving on the freeway. I asked to have it repaired due to the fact that I was forced into purchasing their warranty that he stated came with the car but put in the contract later that I would pay $1000+ dollars for it when it's an expired warranty from 2017 when the dealer first got the car so it's only a extended warranty and doesn't help with anything. He came once to repair the car by putting some fluid inside to make it run & instead told me he changed the battery which turned out to be false the car kept cutting off and going out I kept seeking help it was david and abn motors who refused to fix any mechanical issue I was having with the vehicle and in return the car put me and my family in harms way it is a danger to have or drive with my kids cops said so also it cut off on the highway while driving and leaked an extremely large amount of oil while me and my kids were inside the vehicle I was forced to merge over completely to get out the way of traffic as the car just stopped motion. Something under the hood popped and the vehicle was smoky state officials order me and my family out the vehicle in toledo a hour drive away from my home. They stated it was a safety hazard and that I could not enter my vehicle and took it away. I had even sent over a message to the dealer representative I purchased the car from a month earlier stating I was having problems he refused to respond or help he stated that I already signed the contract and I should deal with it myself.

Car would shimmy and shake. New tires new breaks etc. Made appoint. To fix recalls when power ster. Went out. Put new ps on and it didn't fix problem. Went back and forth to dealer. Had car diagnosed and service manager said there was a recall for so called gm, rep said they would fix and reinburse for the work already performed, gave a case number. Car sat a dealers weekend. Today gm rep said they would only pay 5% and denied other rep had said they'd fix. No power steering on car and it's dangerous to drive due to manufacturing defect and I'm expected to cover costs when I've already spent nearly 1000 on it and it's still not fixed. Please help

Was actually driving down the street around the corner from the place I reside and all of a sudden the wheel started to jerk violently which caused us to drive into a curb , causing the vehicle to drive up onto a curb flattening both sides of the right side of the car as well almost clipping a car at the light to our left...the kids on back seat were completely terrified because they had no idea what was going on and are still scared to get into a vehicle...as well have a pplice report could probably obtain if need be.. We just want car foxed right way not trying to sue anybody or get aome outrageous settlement ....
