| 2000 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE:BELTS AND ASSOCIATED PULLEYS | MY CAR MAKES A LOUD SQUEALING NOISE USUALLY OCCURRING WHEN IT RAINS OR IN THE MORNING (I'M GUESSING DUE TO CONDENSATION). THE DEALER REPLACED MY BELT TENSIONER TWO TIMES TO FIX THIS PROBLEMS BUT IT ALWAYS COMES BACK. THE FIRST TIME THEY REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY. THE SECOND TIME I HAD TO PAY AROUND $450 TO REPLACE IT AND THE NOISE STILL CAME BACK A WEEK LATER. I'M GUESS THAT THE RAIN IS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT DESTROYING THE BELT TENSIONER. I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS MANY TIMES AND THE DEALER WOULD EITHER SPRAY THE BELTS WITH OIL OR REPLACE THE TENSIONER BELT BUT THE NOISE ALWAYS COMES BACK. *JB |
| 2000 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE:BELTS AND ASSOCIATED PULLEYS | MY YEARMODEL 2000 TOYOTA CELICA HAS CONSISTENTLY AND REPEATEDLY HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVE BELT TENSIONER MECHANISM. ON OR ABOUT EVERY 30,000 MILES, THE BELT TENSIONER FAILS AT WHICH TIME RATTLING AND SQUEAKING NOISES EMINATE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AS DESCRIBED IN TSB #EG01401. I WAS ABLE TO HAVE THE TENSIONER REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ONCE. THE NEXT TIME IT WAS REPLACED OUT OF WARRANTY AT ABOUT 60 - 70,000 MILES. NOW THE VEHICLE HAS 90,000 MILES ON IT AND IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS PART HAS FAILED AGAIN. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE REPEATED AND CONSISTENT FAILURE OF THIS PART IS PUTTING MY LIFE AND MY PASSENGERS LIFE AT RISK. |
