I bought the car on 08/28/2010 and only drove it that day. Since it was a Saturday and they closed early, I had to wait until Monday to contact them. On Monday, a rep from the dealership told me that they sold the car to me from someone who didn't have a dealership or title for the car and he was using their dealership to sell and to retrieve the title once the sell was final. The car was ok when I left the dealership, but after a couple hours it died on me while I was driving almost causing a accident. On the dash it keep saying, "check charging system". I know a lil about cars and I really need the transportation because I'm a college student at the university of Wisconsin-milwaukee, I decided to try to get it fixed to my knowledge, but it seems as if it's something more to this "lemon" auction auto sold me. I replaced the alternator, voltage regulator and bought a new battery and nothing has changed. It'll drive for a hour or two then die while I'm driving.
