| Nov | 2012 | 95000 | First odometer entry | |
| Nov | 2012 | 95000 | 0 | I was driving the vehicle and suddenly I started to hear a grinding noise from the front drivers side wheel. I tried to start it in the morning. Once the starter cranked the engine, it wouldn't stop rotating the engine. The engine was running, but also the starter kept on rotating. This car needs to step on the clutch in order for it to start. One day I stepped on the clutch pedal and the car won't start. |
