WHY ON 6-10-2010 NEED TO REPLACE SERPENTINE BELT AND SEAL AND AGAIN ON 2-08-2013 REMOVE AND REPLACE SERPENTINE BELT AND BELT TENSIONER?? WHEN THIS CAR REACHED 62,000 I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT TROUBLE WITH IT AND NOW I AM AFRAID OF A FIRE, GAS IS LEAKING SOMEWHERE!!!! I ONLY HAVE 97,461 MILES. IS NOT THERE SOME WAY OR SOMEONE WHO CAN FIND ORIGIN OF THE FUEL LEAK? |
