What owners wrote

The car has been given me problem since I bought the car. The car stall son me when I turn left or right and the brake light turns on. Vehicle creeps forward when brake peedle is on. I have taken the car 4 times to the shop . Dealer has already changed the parts but it still has the same problems. I have tried with the dealer and they give me the run around. Please let me know who I need to contact. Thanks stephanie silva.
