The engine has a heavy spark knock and has been repaired 5 times. The driver seat does not move forward when someone is sitting in it. When car is first put in reverse, it will roll forward. When slowing from 60+ mph, the car shakes really bad and also rides very rough when speeding up from 65+mph. These cars seem to have a lot of engine, transaxle problems. Maybe a recall is in order. My car has been int he shop 60 out of 290 days. I have dealt with rental cars and repairs in excess of $20k. Please help!.
