THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES WHERE A REPLACEMENT BULB COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE MANUFACTURE WAS CONTACTED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 116,000.

IN THE RAIN, WHILE DRIVING IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY, THE FAN BELT SLIPPED OFF OF THE IDLER PULLEYS CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING, LOSS OF CHARGING, LOSS OF COOLING, THUS CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD ON THE CAR DUE TO LACK OF STEERING. RESULTING IF ALMOST $600.00 IN REPAIRS. THE CAR REPAIR SHOP SAYS THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME BECAUSE THE IDLER PULLEY ARE SMOOTH AND DO NOT HAVE THE PROPER GROOVES. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL.
