WHILE DRIVING ON NEW YORK CITY'S WEST SIDE HIGHWAY MY HOOD STARTED TO VIBRATE AND SUDDENLY POPPED OPEN COMPLETELY OBSCURING MY VISION. FORTUNATELY I MANAGED TO PULL OVER WITHOUT INJURY. I SUBSEQUENTLY BROUGHT THE CAR IN EVERY TIME THE HOOD WOULD START TO RATTLE. AFTER A DOZEN ATTEMPTS I GAVE UP AND RECENTLY SOLD THE CAR. I HAVE THE REPAIR ORDERS THAT SHOW THE DOZENS OF TIMES THIS CAR WAS IN REPAIR OVER THE LAST 3 YEARS..
