| 2002 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:CATALYTIC CONVERTOR | ENGINE WAS RUNNING ROUGH AND MISFIRED. ONE DEALER SAID THIS WAS A TRANSMISSION MODULE. AFTER KEEPING IT FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND SAID THE SPARKS NEEDED ADJUSTING, WAITED ON THE TRANSMISSION MODULE BECAUSE IT WAS RUNNING FINE. THEN IT STOPPED SUDDENLY IN SNOWY WEATHER, TOWED, I WAS LEFT STRANDED FOR 2 HOURS IN COLD WEATHER, BATTERY REPLACED, 2 MONTHS LATER IT WAS RUNNING EXTREMELY ROUGH AND MISFIRED. A NEW DEALER SAID IT WAS NOT THE TRANSMISSION MODULE BUT THE COILS AND ALL WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED FOR A $1,000. THEY SAID 3 WERE BAD, BUT IF THEY REPLACED THOSE THEY WOULD BE BACK REDOING THE OTHERS WITH IN A FEW WEEKS. CAR HAD 56,000 MILES ,BUT WAS PAST WARRANTY DATE NOT WARRANTY MILEAGE. THIS SEEMED TO BE WHAT WAS WRONG ALL ALONG. I UNDERSTAND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER MIGHT GO DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE HEARD THAT COILS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT THIS POINT.*AK |
| 2005 | VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER SYSTEM:REAR WINDOW | DRIVING 5 MPH ON ROAD, REAR DEFROSTER ON, REAR WINDOW SHATTERS FOR NO APPARENT REASON. CONTACTED THE DEALER, DEALER SAID WOULD CONTACT HEADQUARTERS TO GET APPROVAL TO REPLACE GLASS. DID REPLACE GLASS. FIRST THING THEY MENTIONED ASKED WHEN THEY HEARD THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED WAS IF THE DEFROSTER HAD BEEN ON. SUSPICIOUS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AND WORRIED THIS MAY HAPPEN AGAIN. *NM |
