Consumer had to replace radiator and thermostat. Vehicle kept overheating.
First the headlight lenses clouded over; had to be replaced. Then the injector shot fuel on the engine, car caught fire; $3600 in damage. Then the rearview mirror fell off thrice; bought a new one. The car constantly runs hot since last year; replaced cooling block; now it only runs hot when idling or in stop-n-go traffic; have to run the heater to keep it from overheating; mechanic cant find the cause; AC temp changes from cool to tepid when car idles at a traffic light; once car begins to move, air retuns to cool. The overhead computer just quit, as well as the electronic climate control unit(ecu); ecu replaced. When outside temp drops around freezing car has a banging noise underneath, until it warms up. Remote door locks quit working within 2 years of ownership.
Vehicle stalls at any speed/any time. Took vehicle to mechanic 4 times, cannot find problem.
While driving vehicle, it would stall out without any warning. Was not able to restart vehicle. Had it towed to dealer. Mechanic indicated the problem was broken water pump. Water pump was replaced in 1996, & currently its 2000, and same stalling problem has reappeared.
Consumer is not satisfied with recall repair (99v‑215), the dealership took a long time to repair vehicle.
Abs unit failed. Nlm
Recall # 99v215000 engine: other parts: owner made an appointment for march 7, 2000. After arriving at dealership, owner was informed that parts(s) were not available. Owner was not able to schedule another appointment because dealer did not know if parts will be available. Owner was told to call back in 3 weeks. Please provide any further information.
At low speed 20mph in parking lots or heavy traffic with A/C on all gauges the instrument on panel would go off immediately and the heater comes on blowing at full speed. Took the vehicle to dealer no warranty for electrical problems. They said vehicle needed a new ignition switch. Replaced at consumer cost. Also while driving on highway ABS light came on and stayed on, and the wheels locked up at heavy braking. Dealer's response no warranty, diagnosis showed it needed new computer. 3 months later, ABS came on intermittently. Dealer said it needed ABS brake relay, emercency brake inoperative (1993), evaporator core ruptured, head gasket warped from overheating causing leakage.
This recall is a windfall in repairs for the dealer. Everything is now failing because of the age of the car ( from the service manager). I have spoken to other owners of the same car and they are having the same problem................
