I WAS TRAVELING TO HOUSTON TEXAS ON APRIL 17, 2020 WHEN I NOTICED MY SERVICE ENGINE CHECK LIGHT WENT ON. I HAD JUST PASSED SWEETWATER TEXAS SO I DRIVE TO THE NEAREST AUTOZONE WHICH WAS LOCATED AT STORE #1367 311 E COMMERCE, BROWNWOOD, TEXAS 76801AND HAD IT CHECKED THEY SAID IT WAS FUEL RAIL SYSTEM PRESSURE WAS TOO LOW. THIS IS WHEN I DISCOVERED IT HAD A RECALL ON IT FOR THE SAME THING. DO I NEED TO RETURN TO DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT FROM AND ARE THEY RESPONSIBLE FOR SELLING CAR AS IS WITH A RECALL ON IT. THE RECALL WAS ISSUED ONE DAY AFTER I PURCHASED VEHICLE. I'M STILL DRIVING VEHICLE AND DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO GET IT REPAIRED MYSELF. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT THE TIME OF ALL THIS. *TR

THERE ARE TEXT MESSAGES ON MY RADIO SCREEN AND EXTREMELY LOUD POPPING FROM THE ANTENNA AND IN THE VEHICLE. THIS IS STARTLING AND DISTRACTING AND I HAVE ALMOST PLOWED INTO OTHER VEHICLES WHEN IT OCCURS BECAUSE IT SOUNDS LIKE A GUNSHOT. THE CAR WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT REAR ENDED IN 2018 SO I DON'T DISCOUNT THERE ISN'T AN UNDERLYING ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. I PAID FOR A NEW ANTENNA AND THE PROBLEM STILL PRESENT. THE DEALERSHIP STATES THE ISSUE CANNOT BE RESOLVED AND THE CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN SALVAGED POST ACCIDENT DUE TO THE LENGTHY PROCESS OF TRYING TO DETECT AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THE INSURER HAS NOT ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM. I'M ASKING NOW, FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO ASSIST. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
