| 1997 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE | ENGINE STALLED AT 55 MPH. AFTER THE REPAIR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND THE DEALER COULDNT FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE EGR VALVE. *AK |
| 2002 | STEERING:COLUMN LOCKING:ANTI-THEFT DEVICE | THE ALARM SYSTEM GOES OFF WITHOUT ANYTHING GETTING NEAR THE VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP AT LEAST 4 TIMES NOW THE ALARM WONT GO OFF AT ALL. THERE WAS A POPPING NOISE UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE WHICH WAS CAUSED BY THE BRAKE CLIPS COMING OFF BRAKE CHAMBERS. THE DEALERSHIP DAMAGED MY VEHICLE WHEN IT WAS IN FOR SERVICE. 2 DENTS ON DRIVERS SIDE AND A SCRATCH ON THE DRIVERS DOOR. THE GOODYEAR TIRES HAD A BELT BROKEN IN THE RIGHT REAR, THEY INSTALLED A WHEEL BEARING, HUB KITS AND A SAFETY VIBRATION HARNESS BUT THE TIRE STILL MADE THE SAME NOISE. THEN THEY ROTATED THE TIRE TO THE PASSENGER FRONT. I HAD TO LITERALLY PITCH A FIT TO GET THEM TO CHANGE THE TIRES AND REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE TIRES. I FINALLY TOLD THEM I WAS NOT TAKING THE CAR OFF THE LOT SO THEY GOT ME A RENTAL AT THAT POINT. WELL THERE IS STILL A POPPING NOISE WHEN YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE ALARM WONT GO OFF NOW. THIS WILL BE THE FIFTH TIME I HAVE REPORTED THESE PROBLEMS.*AK |
