Erls fuse blows, which causes the cruise control to stop working along with the A/C, also the reverse lights stop working, and when driving at 70 mph instead of the RPM's running about 2500 they are at 3500 when the fuse blows. Brought it to dealer to be fixed, they put a 25 amp fuse in it when it only takes a 15 amp fuse and said they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Of course that blew eventually along with some smoke from the fuse panel.

We purchased the car in June of 2001. The car had problems right away with the driver side door locks and the signal lights. The signal lights would not work after using them once each time the car started. The dealer repaired the signal lights. In September of 2001 the car began hesitating to start. It sometimes takes an extra few seconds to begin to start. One day it refused to start after some errands. It also had a very foul smell. That evening it started again. I took it to a mechanic who checked the charging system and other misc. Ideas and couldn't find the source of the problem. It's still hesitating to start most of the time. The electric windows also short out now.

This auto has total electrical problems. I replaced the alternator just 4 weeks after purchase. I broke down in the middle of the ocala national forrest with 4 10 year old girls in the car. Since then, I have replaced a 4 year old battery at 2 years age and all of the fuses. In 1/00 while driving in a fog white out on top of a 300 ft bridge, I put on my flashers and all my lights went out. A vehicle behind me didn't see me and nearly pushed us both off the bridge. Since then every time I put on my flashers, all other electrical things stop. My elect door locks keep blowing fuses and windows don't work all the time. I'V contacted the dealer who told me all these problems began after I bought the car and it was my problem. I purchased a extended warrenty, but this problem is not covered. Please help!!
