 This vehicle constantly hesitates, misfires,and today it backfired for the first time. when you turn off the car you can smell a the fuel out of the exhaust . this problem is not intermittent it is constant and i feel it is a problem with the emissions on this car . i went to an oldmobile dealership to ask about recalls . they said there were none, however , in a consumer reports book i am reading it uses the same car as mine for an example of a vehicle with a exhaust emissions recall. the rear brakes had a 10 point rear brake job consisting of new cylinders ,hardware, drums turned and new pads. the front brakes were in good repair. yet it seems that the brakes are not stopping the car effectively
