I purchased this vehicle on the date noted below with only 56,000 miles on the odometer. The dealer imports ltd. In st . Louis, mo put the words exempt on the title in the process of selling me this vehicle. I did not realize he put this on the title due to the fact that I could not see from across his desk what he was writing and I was also so eager to buy the vehicle that I did not read the back of the title until I got to the dmv to register it in my name. I asked the worker at the dmv what this meant and she said she did not know. The car is a '95 and was claimed to only have one owner but just recently I started having trouble with my vehicle such as my transmission shifting really hard and acting as if it is about to go out. At this moment as I write to you, when I drive my vehicle it has a loud rancid odor coming from the front end. I was told that this was the gears in my transmission that are burnt and producing this offensive odor. I was told that it would soon go out. Now the reason for my complaint is that if this car only had 56,000 miles on it and I only put in another 30,000 (as of date) and I keep up with the regular maintenance of the vehicle then why is my transmission going out so early. I have also had to replace my motor mounts and front end sway bar links and will soon have to replace the entire drivetrain. In my opinion all of these repairs are consistent with a car that has higher mileage. There is possibly no way that car would only have 56,000 miles on it and the car is over 10 years old. It doesn't seem right so could someone please investigate the matter.

A/c-heat- the switch to change hot/cold on dash keeps breaking. It "freezes into on position, and you cannot adjust the temperature. Driver power window switch- only when it rains or snows the window will go down just fine, but will not go back up. You have to keep the window up so you can pull up on the window glass and press the window switch "up" to get the window back up (if your lucky & it goes up !!!) transmission-the transmission slips when you go around a corner. It also slips if you are coming up behind someone, slow down for them to turn (or whatever) when you re-accelerate, the trans. Slips, then kicks in. When you are going 65mph on a highway, the trans. "jumps", and you can watch it do so on the tachometer while it does so.
