I HAD TO PAY $1400.00 FOR TRANSMISSION REBUILD BECAUSE OF BAD FRONT CLUTCH SEAL. I SUSPECT THE SEAL FAILED BECAUSE OF INCORRECT MACHINED FRONT CLUTCH FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE PROBLEM RESULTED IN ALARMING DELAYED REVERSE AND SLIPPING 2-3 SHIFTS. *AK

IT IS ABSOLUTELY REDICULOUS THAT A GAS TANK OF 5 YRS OLD IS DETERIORATING. I WAS ASKED IF I USE MOBIL GAS AND I DON'T! THIS IS A POOR EXCUSE FOR A PROBLEM THAT IS OCCURRING DUE TO THE MAKE OF THE GAS TANK! I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE IT IS THE MANUFACTURERS FAULT THAT THESE PARTS NEED TO BE REPLACED UNUSUALLY EARLY ON SUCH A YOUNG VEHICLE. *AK
