CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON 6/23/19. 6/24/19 TOOK CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH THEY HAD UNTIL 07/12/19 STATING IS WAS THE KEY FOB AND PUSH START BUTTON. ONE WEEK IT RAN FINE THEN RAPIDLY BEGAN TO NOT START, CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON ALONG WITH TRANSMISSION LIGHTS. THE CAR HAS BEEN A LEMON SINCE DAY ONE.
