Vehicle passenger seat creaks and is not stable, lights on car continue to flicker and dim in and out when a/c and headlights are on. Very dangerous. Someone will think you are brightening them or stopping suddenly and will either cause a crash or road rage incident. Today eddie milan,general manager of sloane honda called me (can verify by cell phone bill) and "told me not to come back to sloane honda anymore"…
