  • Automatic transmission

On several occasions, especially during or after a rainfall, when driving through standing water which caused an upward splash under the right front, the engine died, causing loss of power. Engine would restart as soon as vehicle cleared the deep water area, but a squealing of the power steering would follow for about 30 seconds. Dealer aware of problem, but ha syet to replac eparts.
