HARPSWELL AUTO ILLEGALLY SOLD ME A VEHICLE WITH 5 SAFELY RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE BEFORE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. SAFETY RECALL CODES ARE C1611Z, C1614Z, C1801R, C1806Z, C2003R. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE 4/25/2020 AND 2 RECALLS WERE DUE IN 2016 AND 3 WERE DUE IN 2019. WHERE THESE ARE VERY BIG SAFETY RECALLS I THINK HARPSWELL AUTO NEEDS TO HAVE THEIR LICENSE REVOKE FOR SERVICE AND INSPECTION STICKERS BECAUSE MY VEHICLE SHOULD NEVER HAVE PASSED INSPECTION WITH THE CROSSMEMBER RECALL COMPLETELY ROTTED OUT.
ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON STEADY WITH THE ENGINE BUCKING, SURGING, LOSING R.P.M.'S WHILE DRIVING AND STALLING AFTER COMING TO A FULL STOP. *TWO (2) O2 SENSORS WERE REPLACED, COMPUTER RE-PROGRAMED, ONE (1) OF THE TWO (2) SENSORS REPLACED AGAIN, WITH A FINAL REPAIR TO A SUSPECTED AIR LEAK WHICH FINALLY,AFTER 3-4 WEEKS, CLEARED THE LIGHT FROM COMING BACK ON. NOW, ONE MONTH LATER THE BUCKING AND SURGING IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE FREQUENT. I'M $1,000.00 INTO THIS PROBLEM AND IT STILL ISN'T RESOLVED!! COMPLAINT #2: THE RIGHT REAR SEAT BELT DOES NOT LOCK AND PULLS BACK OUT WHEN CONNECTED, COMBINED WITH THE FACT THAT THE FRONT BELTS ARE NOT LONG ENOUGH FOR EVEN THE SLIGHTEST OF LARGER PERSONS.
I WAS RETURNING HOME FROM WORK AND WAS AT A STOP SIGN WAITING TO TURN LEFT. CROSS TRAFFIC DOES NOT STOP. WHEN BELIEVING I WAS CLEAR I BEGAN MY LEFT TURN WHEN A CAR CROSSED IN FRONT OF MINE AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I ATTEMPTED TO STOP BUT THE TWO CARS COLLIDED AND THE FRONT END OF MY CAR WAS COMPLETELY TORN OFF AND MY FRONT HOOD WAS BUCKLED BACK TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. WHEN EMERGENCY RESPONSE ARRIVED, THEY FELT VERY STRONGLY THAT THE AIR BAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED AND THEY MOVED ME TO THE BACK SEAT FOR FURTHER OBSERVATION BECAUSE THEY WERE AFRAID THE AIR BAG MAY STILL DEPLOY AND CAUSE FURTHER INJURY. I WAS SUBSEQUENTLY TRANSPORTED TO A LOCAL HOSPITAL FOR EVALUATION AND AFTER TESTING AND OBSERVATION WAS RELEASED WITH MODERATE BACK PAIN AND MILD TO MODERATE NECK PAIN.
I OWN A 2011 MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER SPORT. THE DRIVER SEAT BELT CLICKS AS IF IT IS FASTENED CORRECTLY THEN MOMENTS LATER IT WILL POP OUT AS IF IT WERE NEVER ATTACHED. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK FOR ANYONE WHO IS DRIVING THE VEHICLE.
