| 2001 | POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION | AFTER PARKING VEHICLE AND SHIFTING INTO REVERSE, GEARS WILL NOT SHIFT INTERMITTENTLY. *AK ONCE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TURNED OFF AND UPON GETTING BACK IN TO START, THE GEAR SHIFT WILL NOT GO INTO REVERSE. CONSUMER HAS TO JIGGLE THE GEAR SHIFT. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE THREE TIMES. THE FIRST TIME THE FLUID WAS CHANGED BUT IT DIDNT HELP. THE LAST TIME CONSUMER WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T HELP HIM BECAUSE ALL OF THE MANUAL SHIFTERS DID THE SAME THING. *JG |
| 1996 | AIR BAGS:FRONTAL | THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AIRBAG HAS A RATTLE FROM WITHIN THE MODULE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY WHAT THE CAUSE OF THE RATTLE IS. I'M AFRAID THAT EITHER THE AIRBAG WON'T PROPERLY DEPLOY (LIKE MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS) OR THAT A PROJECTILE WILL ACCOMPANY THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG AND INJURE, OR POSSIBLY KILL, THE PASSENGER. DEALER DOESN'T WANT TO REPLACE THE MODULE AT NO CHARGE. *AK |
