I BELIEVE THIS CAR IS A LEMON! I HAVE HAD IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES FOR THE DRIVER SEAT TRACKS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, THEY DON'T MOVE BACK ALL THE WAY. IT NOW NEEDS TO GO BACK A FOURTH TIME BECAUSE IT WILL NOT ENGAGE PROPERLY AND I AM AFRAID IT WILL LET GO AND FLY BACKWARDS WHILE I AM DRIVING. THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BACK AND FORTH AS IF SOMEONE IS MOVING IT LEFT TO RIGHT. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS AND STATES THAT IS FOR THE TIRE MFG. TO FIX, HOWEVER MY MECHANIC BELEIVES THE TIRES ARE FINE.*AK

ON APRIL 23, 2001, I WAS DRIVING FROM CAPE COD TO MY HOME IN CAMPTON, NH. THE EMISSIONS CONTROL WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND AS I WAS PULLING INTO THE RIGHT LANE TO FIND AN EXIT THE CAR BEGAN LOSING POWER. AS I APPROACHED EXIT 38, ON INTERSTATE 93N, SMOKE STARTED COMING OUT OF EXHAUST AND BY THE TIME I REACHED THE END OF THE EXIT THE CAR STALLED WHICH WAS GOOD BECAUSE MY BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. WHEN THE CAR STALLED THE INTERIOR BEGAN FILLING WITH BLACK SMOKE AND I GRABBED MY DOG BY THE COLLAR AND EVACUATED THE CAR. SECONDS AFTER, THE CAR BURST INTO FLAMES WHICH SHOT OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. BY THE TIME THE FIRE TRUCKS ARRIVED THE CAR WAS BURNED BEYOND REPAIR, INCLUDING ALL MY PERSONAL BELONGINGS INSIDE THE CAR.*AK

WHILE APPLYING BRAKES VEHICLE ACCELERATED SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY TO 80MPH. DEALER HAS INSPECTED VEHICLE, AND REATTACHED VACCUM HOSE THAT WAS NOT INSTALLED CORRECTLY. *AK CONSUMER STATES THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES BEFORE 4-12-2001 VEHICLE WAS TAKEN INTO SHOP BUT DEALER COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. *JB
