“A/c recall - cooling system never works properly. Defrost doesn't clear windows on left side. Engine started leaking oil profusely (part recall?) ABS braking system went out. Lighting switch went out & all lights blew. Antenna does'nt work properly. Windows are coming down slower and slower. Seems like the transmission might be the next to go. This car has been a continual case of murphy's law.”
