Internal loss of coolant started shortly after purchase. When I determined that it was an abnormal amount, the warranty was done. Car is presently down until I can afford the head gaskets replacement and possibly replacement of a cracked head. Upon state inspection, leaking rear wheel cylinders were discovered on both wheels. Also, both rear struts were determined to be faulty. Whenever it is very cold, the accelerator linkage sticks and I must shift to neutral to stop without sliding. Occasionally the engine has raced at over 3000 RPM for several minutes after the accelerator pedal has been released. The head gasket problem has happened to several other persons I know with the 3.1 engine. Four different mechanics have told me that this is a very common problem with these engines after 30000 miles.

Throttle would stick when floored.it wouldn't return when I let off the throttle. It did this 4 or 5 times in the 1st 2 years I owned the care. It cause me to go into a guardrail, but my ABS did slow me down so I was only going about 25 MPH when I hit. I have pictures of the throttle linkage and my mechanic will back me up about the linkage.
