| Air Conditioner problems | |
| Owners/service Manual problems |
When driving on the highway if traffic comes to a sudden stop, braking is horrible. The car does not grip the road it slides. When putting car into drive or reverse, car hesitates for about 30 seconds then jerks into action. The air conditioning system stopped working. The car is literally falling apart piece by piece.
Turned switch to on position, vehicle started up and backed into a garage. The owner's manual states when starting engine, the clutch pedal has to be fully depressed. Took to dealer and dealer stated clutch does not have to be depressed to start vehicle. Nlm.
