I'M IN THE LIMO BUSINESS AND MY PROBLEM IS WITH THE DEALERS DURING WARRANTY. THEY SAY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEING ON IS A MYSTERY AND NO PROBLEM DURING WARRANTY. THEN AFTER WARRANTY THEY TELL YOU YOU NEED $3,000-$6,000 IN REPAIRS AND PARTS TO GET IT TO GO OUT. SO LIKE AN IDIOTE I GO FOR IT AND THE LIGHT IS STILL ON
