STEERING
THERE IS A RECALL ON THE RIGHT STEERING KNUCKLE ON MY TYPE OF VEHICLE, INCLUDING SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL. I DID NOT EVER GET A RECALL NOTICE, BUT WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH WHERE THE RIGHT STEERING KNUCKLE BROKE AND CAUSED SIGNIFICANT OTHER DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE, SO I WAS FORCED TO FILE A CLAIM WITH MY INSURANCE TO HAVE IT FIXED. I HAD TO PAY A LARGE DEDUCTIBLE AND WAS FAULTED FOR THE ACCIDENT. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET REIMBURSED FOR THIS SINCE THERE IS A RECALL ON THAT PART OF THE VEHICLE?

IT'S A TRACKER ON MY TRUCK AND THE DEALERSHIP ISN'T USING IT PROPERLY. IF MY CAR PAYMENT IS LATE THEN YES, I KNOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO SHUT DOWN, BUT IF I'M MAKING A PAYMENT ON TIME THEN WHY IT KEEPS SHUTTING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. BEEN LATE FOR WORK, SCHOOL, AND PICKING UP MY 5 YEAR OLD FROM SCHOOL. BY THE WAY SHE IS GOING TO BE STRANDED AS WE SPEAK. MADE MY PAYMENT ON 9/18/17 NOW IT'S OFF TODAY. MADE MY PAYMENT LAST WEDNESDAY, AND I HAD TO CALL THEM THURSDAY BECAUSE IT WAS OFF. LAST WEEK THEY TURNED IT BACK ON AFTER I TOLD THEM I'M MAKING A COMPLAINT WITH THEM, NOW THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS TODAY. IT'S THE SAME THING FROM LAST WEEK. THE GUY TURNED IT ON LAST WEEK BUT HE SEEMS TO NOT KNOW THE PROBLEM THIS WEEK. I CAN'T KEEP AFFORDING TO MISS OUT ON SCHOOL AND WORK, AND FOR SURLY CAN'T KEEP MY DAUGHTER FROM GETTING TO AND FROM SCHOOL. I ASKED HIM TO TURN IT ON TODAY AND HE SAYS IT'S NOT THEM EVERYTHING IS BRAND NEW IN MY TRANSMISSION/MOTOR AND MY BATTERY WORKS JUST LIKE LAST TIME. THIS IS THE FOURTH INCIDENT THIS MONTH. HE ALSO TOLD ME HE CAN SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, BUT I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE TOW. I AM A LOYAL CUSTOMER THAT GOT A CAR FROM THEM LAST YEAR. THIS IS NOT MY FAULT THEY PUT A TRACKER ON MY CAR THAT KEEPS SHUTTING OFF. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON MAY 1ST 2017 I WAS ON THE MARKET FOR A DEPENDABLE VEHICLE FOR MY CHILDREN AND I. MY BOYFRIEND SUGGESTED AUTO DEALS LLC. ON 12838 SAN PEDRO IN SAN ANTONIO, WHERE HIS COUSIN RICHARD MCKINNEY IS A SALESMAN. MY BOYFRIEND AND I ARRIVED AT 1:30 PM AND STAYED TILL 6PM THAT SAME DAY FILLING OUT PAPERWORK AND LOOKING AT VEHICLES. RICHARD'S COWORKER DOUG ASSISTED US ON THIS FIRST DAY. WE DECIDED TO GO HOME AND SLEEP ON IT AND SEE THE NEW SHIPMENT THE NEXT DAY AS I WAS UNSATISFIED WITH THE CURRENT OPTIONS. AS WE DECIDED TO LEAVE THE SUPERVISOR ALEX SINNO SAID "COME BACK TOMORROW AND I WILL GIVE YOU A YEAR WARRANTY". WHEN WE RETURNED THE NEXT MORNING WITH THE $700 WE WERE TOLD WE NEEDED TO DRIVE OFF THE LOT, WE WERE THEN TOLD THAT THE BOSS WAS ASKING FOR $1000 DOWN PLUS INSURANCE THAT THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF IN HOUSE ON AN IOU THAT WE WERE TO PAYBACK THAT FRIDAY. FEELING UNEASY BUT STILL DESPERATE WE SCRAPED TOGETHER THE EXTRA $300 PLUS INDEBTED OURSELVES FOR THE IN HOUSE INSURANCE. SHORTLY AFTER WE DROVE OFF THE LOT ON THE WAY HOME ON MAY 2ND 2017 THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHAKE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON AND I NOTICE THAT IT IS OUT OF GAS AS WELL. AFTER FUELING UP, I DRIVE OVER TO OUR FAMILY MECHANIC. HE INFORMS ME OF A MULTITUDE OF ISSUES INCLUDING THE RADIATOR BEING BONE DRY, AND GASKETS NEEDING REPLACEMENTS. I ALSO NOTICE I CANNOT LOCK MY DOORS AND SEE THAT THERE ARE OVER 20 FUSES MISSING. WE MANAGE TO MAKE IT HOME BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP IS CLOSED AT THIS POINT SO WE CALL IN THE MORNING. FOR A WHOLE WEEK WE CALL REPEATEDLY DAILY BUT NEVER MAKE IT PAST THE RECEPTIONIST AND NEVER RECEIVE A CALL BACK. DURING THE WEEK I TAKE IT TO A NEARBY ADVANCE AUTO AND AUTO ZONE, WHERE THE VEHICLE IS PUT ON THE COMPUTER. I ENDED UP BUYING COOLANT AND AN IGNITION COIL, AS WELL AS RECEIVED COPIES OF RECEIPTS AND DIAGNOSTICS ON THEIR MACHINES.ON MAY 5TH WE ALSO PAYED BACK THE I.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
EVERY TIME I PUT GAS IN TO MY TANK (NOT TOPPING OFF) FUEL GUSHES BACK OUT OF THE FUEL TANK AND ON TO THE GROUND AFTER THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF WHEN THE TANK GETS FILLED MORE THAN 3/4 FULL. IT HAS HAPPENED AT NUMEROUS DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND HAS HAPPENED WHEN I AM HOLDING THE HANDLE TO THE GAS PUMP AND WHEN THE PUMPS AUTO SHUT-OFF FEATURE IS USED. EACH TIME THAT IT HAS HAPPENED A LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS HAS BEEN SPILLED ON THE GROUND, ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, ON MY SHOES. ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS THE GAS STATION ATTENDANT HAS HAD TO BLOCK OFF THE GAS PUMP AND COME OVER AND CLEAN UP THE SPILL. EACH TIME IT HAS HAPPENED THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN STATIONARY AND NOT RUNNING.
