Okay so I’ve had my vehicle for about 8 months now. My wife got it from a used dealer for 1100 😂💀 it is a 500$ hatchback imo. Especially considering the condition it was in when my Wife purchased it. It broke down a week after having it. The dealerships mechanic supposedly fixed the alternator for 500$. Still wouldn’t run right tho. It had a really rough idle for a month before I fixed the idle. It got better only to get worse and then just repeated the cycle. It likes to quit and stall out like a Manuel 😐 and the acceleration seems to have gotten worse. I can feel less power when I gas it than from when I first drove it. It has an economy button on it that wasn’t pushed to ‘OFF’ for probably 2 months after first getting it. How long it was on before that, I’m not sure. It hasn’t had an oil change in who knows how long...same with the tranny fluid. I did replace the oil filter, oil today Nd 4 spark plugs yesterday.The oil was dark and gritty. There’s oil buildup all over. I was told that this is bad I did this, I hosed off my block and washed off oil buildup because when my block gets hot it just smokes which I assume is from the buildup? The alternator shakes because it’s missing a nut that keeps it from moving. The wires are chewed up from packrats. The dealership just had them taped with electrical tape instead of replacing them....the spark plug wires need to be replaced ( hopefully doing that tmrw September 9) they work but I had to cut open the rubber housing to pull the connector closer to the end of the housing because it wasn’t reaching the plug...that seemed to work for now. It was dead for 2 days. I got it running yesterday evening after replacing the plugs and messing with the connecters. It ran but with less umph. Then around 11 today it didn’t want to start up after I changed the oil Nd filter. I would turn the key, it would sputter, then make a whirring/buzzing noise like gears would sound if the teeth didn’t catch. The only thing that works when it does that is to pump the gas hard and fast right when I turn the key. The air filter isn’t bad but does need replacing. Also, sometimes i smell really strong gas fumes. The exhaust is a bit oily and black. The steering needs to be realigned. I have to have the steering wheel turned 30 degrees to the left in order to follow a straight line. I’ve ripped two tires’ tread off. I’m assuming from over steer that’s going on...I think I have as much info as I had....if anyone can help with any of my issues that’d be got dang perfect 😁
