AIRBAG RED LIGHT COMES ON WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE. RESTRAINING STRAP IN REAR-LEFT SEAT DOES NOT ENGAGE.
I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AFTER DRIVING ONLY 10MPH, MY ENGINE CRADLE DROPPED DOWN THERE FOR SMASHING THROUGH MY FRONT AXEL, AND TURNING IN BOTH OF MY FRONT WHEELS. NOT REALIZING WHAT HAPPENED I CONTINUED TO DRIVE TO A REPAIR SHOP. BOTH TIRES POPPED. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND PAID AN OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT TO GET A TOW TO A REPAIR SHOP. I WAS WITHOUT A CAR FOR 2 WEEKS WHILE THEY REPLIED MY VEHICLE WHICH COST ME ALMOST $1,300. MY INSURE COMPANY WOULD NOT TOTAL OUT MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO SALT CORROSION AND RUST (WARE AND TEAR). DID I MENTION I WAS ON VACATION WHEN THIS HAPPENED? $$$. NOW MY TRANSMISSION IS TROUBLE SHOOTING SOMEHOW (151,000 MILES). IT'S HAVING TROUBLE SWITCHING GEARS AND IT HITS PRETTY HARD WHEN IT FINALLY DOES. I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON,...
WHEN I ACCELERATE FROM A STAND STILL,( STOP SIGN, STOP LIGHT, ETC. ) THE CAR FREQUENTLY HESITATES BEFORE IT STARTS MOVING, WHICH MAKES IT DANGEROUS NOT KNOWING IF YOU ARE GOING GET ACROSS A STREET BEFORE TRAFFIC GETS TO YOU. I HAVE HAD THE CAR IN MANY TIMES TO THE DEALER, BUT THEY HAVE FAILED TO FIND THE PROBLEM. BUT THEY HAVE DONE MANY EXPENSIVE REPAIRS THAT HAD NO EFFECT ON THE HESITATION. I SEE FROM OTHER BULLETINS THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. *TR
THE TRANSMISSION FAILED.*JB
