I went to credit cars to purchase a vehicle kind-of last minute. Their salesman "alfredo" told me I needed some one to sign for "job liability." I told him I did not have nor want a co-signer. He assurred my friend/job liability signer, candace gulick, that she would not be a co-signer. We later found out that he lied. When I drove my car off the lot, credit cars and I had an agreement to fix the non-operating gages. They attempted to fix them 4 times.(1 at credit cars, 3 at cal-rich automotive) after 4 attempts and no luck, thomas from credit cars told me to fix the 2 problems with my own money, and because it was electrical he didn't have to fix it. We had an agreement before I bought the car. (the 2nd problem was I opened my sunroof once and it never closed again.) because of the sunroof not closing my upholstery molded and was ruined. I decided to take a trip a couple of hundred miles away and the transmission went out 10/15/2004 and left me stranded. This was only after having the car for almost 2mos. I had a pre-paid lawyer service write them a letter and all I received were harrassing phone calls at my last job. I spent almost $700.00 of my own money to try and get home when the "new" car left me stranded. Mind you that I am a 21yr old female and I was alone.

Bf the trunk would open due to moisture in the air, at night, the window would steam up completely in seconds, and the speedometer would quit. *sc

Horn button too small- is about the size of a dime. Both my wife and myseld have been in near accident situations that could have been avoided if we could rapidely locate the horn button. It is almost impossible to locate in a hurry. The entire steering wheel needs to be recalled and replaced with one that has the horn button that can be activated over a wider portion of the wheel.

Contacted the extended warrenty company, was told by warrenty people that it was not covered and then informed by them that it was also my AC and the compressor.
