Idler arms should not go bad at 36k miles. The dealer where we purchased has been sold. The problem was discovered when we took the vehicle for pa state inspection (annual). Obviously the idler arms did not go bad from mile 36000 to 36900. We are still within the three years and only over the mileage by 900 miles. But the dealer we took it to would not cover the problem, and charged $525.44 to replace front brakes and idler arms.
Shaft on hydrualic steering pump fell out, causing the vehicle to lose the power brakes and power steering. The dealer has repaired vehicle.
