On 7/26/04 while travelling at approximately 35 MPH, vehicle suddenly died. The timing belt went, damaging valves and cylinder head. Fortunately, vehicle had 57,000 miles and was under warranty. However, the front control arms/bushings/ sway bar were also bad. Unfortunately, these were not covered by warranty. Items were replaced. Now it seems the oil pump is going, oil is leaking and there is low pressure along with catalytic converter going. Dealer says these items will be covered.

No events leading to failure. Noticed odd steering around march 2004. Car pulls to left on acceleration, once car shifts, pulls hard to right. Brought to local mechanic in august 2004 after almost hitting a semi. They said control arms/bushings need to be replaced. They found the problem after driving the car less than a mile. They tried to order parts, found they were dealer only parts, prepay only, no returns. Local mechanic would not service the car. Took it to dealer I bought it from. Charged me $50 for diagnositc, even though I told them what was wrong with it. Ordered parts on 8/12/04. Dealer said it was safe for me to drive, tire will not fall off or anything. Recommended no one else to drive it though. Car is not safe to drive. Unpredictable. The problem is getting worse. I noticed multiple complaints about this same thing. I'm not sure on the status of the parts. I just want it fixed & my car back to normal.

There aren't any events that LED up to the failure. I took my vehicle in for a routine check and was informed of the problem then. The front control arms on my vehicle are worn. I have gone through 3 sets of tires while trying to locate the part to fit my vehicle. My car swerves after reaching a speed of 30 MPH. I am unable to drive my car on wet roads because I am not able to control the extreme sliding that occurs. I have contacted over 50 dealerships in my area and outside of my area and have not been able to locate this particular part. Parts for my car are very hard to find and very costly.
