The piston rod blew a 2.5 inch hole through the engine casing at 158000 km. We had to completely replace the engine. The engine warning light never came on to warn us that a major part failure was about to take place. The back shoulder belts have never functioned properly. The brakes seem to need frequent replacement due to corosion of parts. Could you please let me know if anyone else has complained about a blown out engine? thank you

For the 6th time my A/C has failed to operate properly. It has previously been repaired on 4/20/99, 5/5/99, 9/11/01, 1/8/02 and 7/9/02. The problem always seems to be the same whereby the air is not blowing out the proper vents and the actuator had to be either replaced or adjusted each time. Is this some sort of defect in the manufacture of this part?

This car has had many small problems. Many electrical problems in the air conditioning. The transmission had to be rebuilt at 78000. The biggest problem is in the steering. The intermediate shaft wears out after about 20,000 miles. I am about to have the intermediate shaft replaced for the third time. The first was taken care of by the warranty. The second came out of my pocket and now I am about to have it replaced again.
