| 1998 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM | I WAS ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHEN I TRIED TO GET OVER IN ANOTHER LANE. I COULD NOT BECAUSE MY STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN. SO, WHEN I COULD GET OVER I HEARD A LOUD BANG UNDER MY HOOD. ALL MY LIGHTS LIT UP AND I COULD NOT STOP MY CAR. I TRIED TO MAKE IT HOME AND MY CAR STARTED SMOKING. I CALLED MY MECHANIC AND FOUND OUT THAT MY BELT HAD POPPED OFF ALONG WITH THE PULLEY THAT WAS BURNED BADLY. MY ANTIFREEZE WAS LEAKING ALSO, I WENT ALONE W/MY MECHANIC TO GET THE PART AND WAS INFORMED BY AUTOZONE THAT IT WAS A RECALL ON THIS PART. I WAS NOT NOTIFIED AT ANY TIME BUY THE COMPANY. I CALLED AND REPORTED IT THIS MORNING AND WAS INFORMED THAT IS NOT TRUE. I HAVE THE PART TO SHOW THAT THIS IS A DANGER BECAUSE THE PART IS A CHEAP PIECE OF PLASTIC. THE CORPORATE OFFICE WAS AL SO RUDE AND STATED MY WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED AND THAT IT WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. ALSO, I CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THERE WAS NO RECALL AND THEY WERE NOT GONE TO HANDLE THIS SITUATION. NLM |
