ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
BOUGHT VEHICLE 10 MTHS AGO. HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH IT STARTING. ANTI THEFT SYSTEM CAME ON, BATTERY DRAINED AND KEY LOCKED IN IGNITION. COULD NOT GET IT OUT WITHOUT CHARGING BATTERY. VEHICLE IS NOW NOT WANTING TO START EVERY TIME. TOOK TO DEALER, FOUND OUT HAS FAULTY TIPM. PARTS ON BACK ORDER AND WILL END UP COSTING ALMOST $1200 TO REPAIR. STILL OWE $14000 FOR VEHICLE AND HAVE TO GET REPAIRS. THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED FOR MY 89 YEAR OLD MOTHER SO THAT SHE WOULD BE ABLE TO PUT HER ELECTRIC SCOOTER IN THE BACK OF IT FOR TRAVEL. COMPANY THIS WAS PURCHASED AT, I AM SURE KNEW OF THE ISSUE, JUST AS I AM SURE THEY KNEW OF RECALL ON A WINDOW SWITCH THAT WASN'T REPAIRED. IF THIS PART IS NOT REPAIRS, STEERING CAN GO OUT WHILE DRIVING, AMONGST OTHER FATAL THINGS, SUCH AS BRAKES GOING OUT OR STALLING MIDDLE OF DRIVING. DEALER TRYING TO BLAME OTHER COMPANY FOR INSTALLING FAULTY TIPM, WHEN IT IS THE COMPANY'S FAULTY PART.
