UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE ATTACHED THE PAPERWORK 4 MY 2002 CHRYSLER SEBRING. AS YOU CAN SEE MY FIRST PAYMENT WAS APRIL 13TH 2018 THIS WAS MY DEPOSIT $700. AGAIN ON APRIL 24TH I PAID ANOTHER $600. MAY 20TH I PAID ANOTHER $700. JUNE 5TH I PAID $105. JUNE 5TH IS WHEN I TOOK POSSESSION OF THE CAR. JULY 1ST IS WHEN I HAD THE CAR ACCIDENT, WHERE I WAS INFORMED THAT THE DAMAGE ON THE CAR WAS SO SEVERE BECAUSE THE UNDERCARRIAGE WAS ALL RUSTED OUT. THE CAR WAS TOTALED. THE FIRST DAY I TOOK THE CAR HOME THE BATTERY WAS DEAD I HAD TO BUY ANOTHER BATTERY FOR $75. I NOTICED THE CAR WAS BOTTOMING OUT I TOLD THE MECHANIC JIM WHO IS ALSO THE MAN THAT SOLD ME THE CAR AND HE ASSURED ME IT WAS SAFE. THEY HAD THREE MONTHS TO CHECK THE WHOLE CAR OUT AND MAKE SURE IT WAS SAFE AND IT SAT IN THE SAME SPOT UNTIL I PICKED IT UP. NOW EITHER THEY NEVER CHECKED THE CAR OR THEY CHECKED THE CAR AND SOLD IT TO ME ANYWAY. THE WAY I SEE IT IS THEY WERE WRONG EITHER WAY. NOT TO MENTION THAT JIM THE SO-CALLED MECHANIC IS THE ONE WHO SOLD IT TO ME. RIGHT AFTER THE BATTERY DIED THE RADIO TOOK A CRAP. THEY ALSO CHARGED ME EXTRA 4 TAX TAGS AND TITLE WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO BE INCLUDED IN THE $2,000 THAT THEY WANTED FOR THE CAR. I TRIED TO NEGOTIATE WITH THEM SEEING THAT IT WAS UNDER A MONTH THAT I ACTUALLY HAD THE CAR IN MY POSSESSION I EXPLAINED TO JIM WHAT THE POLICE TOLD ME ABOUT BEING ALL RUSTED BUT THEY INSISTED I HAD THE CAR TOO LONG AND THAT THEY WEREN'T GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. SO HERE WE ARE. I HAVE A PERSONAL INJURY CASE GOING ON RIGHT NOW, I WAS TOLD I NEEDED YOUR TYPE OF ATTORNEY TO FIGHT LLAPI AUTO SALES HUDSON FLA. FLORA IS THE PERSON WHO "MADE THE SALE" (HER NUMBER IS 727-478-5632), BUT IT WAS JIM THE MECHANIC WHO REALLY SOLD ME THE CAR, THAT'S WHY I TRUSTED HIS WORD IT WAS SAFE.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
HORN STARED GOING OFF ON ITS OWN, WHILE DRIVING OR JUST SITTING, THEN THE TRANSMISSION STARTED LAGGING, RPMS DROP WHILE I'M DRIVING AND AM UNABLE TO GET BACK UP TO SPEED FOR A MINUTE. I DRIVE ON THE INTERSTATE DAILY FOR WORK AND BOTH OF THESE ARE A HUGE HAZARD FOR ME AND OTHER DRIVERS. I ASSUME THE PROBLEMS ARE RELATED BEING AS THEY BOTH WENT CRAZY AT THE SAME TIME. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE TO WORK MY CAR JUST SORT OF DIED WITHOUT DIEING THE RPMS DROPPED AND THE CAR TRIED TO DIE BUT DIIDNT. THE GAS PED STOPPED WORKING WHILE THIS WAS OCCURING AND I WAS UNABLE TO GET BACK UP TO SPEED. IT EVENTUALLY KICKED OUT OF IT BUT DID IT AGAIN THE FOLLOWING WEEK, DRIVING OUT OF MY PARKING LOT AT WORK RPMS DROPPED AND WAS UNABLE TO USE MY GAS PED. I GOTIT AGAIN TO GET OUT OF IT BUT ALL ITS GOING TO TAKE IS THIS HAPPENING AND A CAR BEHIND ME AND AND ACCIDENT WILL HAPPEN

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SUSPENSION
THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN IN FOR A LONG TIME. I KNOW SOMEONE THAT HAS THE SAME CAR AND THEIR CAR HAS THE SAME ISSUE. ALSO THE TRUE GAGE READER IS MALFUNCTIONING. NOW I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR STALLING ON THE ROADWAY. I CALLED CHRYSLER ABOUT THE RECALLS AND THE SAID EVERYTHING HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF. THEY COULDN'T TELL ME WHO BROUGHT THE CAR IN FIR REPAIRS. I'VE HAD THE CAR FOR 8 YEARS. I DONT THINK THE ISSUES HAVE BEEN RESOLVED. THEY SHOULD AT LEAST BE ABLE TO SEE WHO BROUGHT THE CAR IN FIR THE REPAIRS. THE HEADLIGHTS WILL SOMETIMES GO OFF WHEN GOING AROUND TURNS. I MET THE PREVIOUS OWNER AND HE TOLD ME THAT THESE ISSUES ARE WHY HE GOT RID OF THE CAR. PLEASE HELP ME GET THE RECALLS FIXED SO SOMETHING BAD DOESN'T HAPPEN TO US IN THIS CAR.
