What owners report
MY ABS LIGHT IS ON AND IT JUST FEELS FUNNY WHEN I DRIVE IT NOW AFRAID A TIRE MIGHT FAL OFF
THE ENGINE RANDOMLY DIES OR STALLS WHILE IN TRAFFIC AT RANDOM TIMES AND WILL NOT TURN BACK ON FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION WHEN THE STALLING OCCURS AND THANKFULLY ONLY ON CITY STREETS. CODES HAVE NOT BEEN PRESENT BUT THE STALLING AND IDLE LEADS ME TO BELIEVE IT IS FAULTY CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSORS. IN ADDITION TO THIS, THE STEERING COLUMN MAKES AN AUDIBLE CLICK NOISE WHEN TURNING PAST THE 12 O'CLOCK POSITION ANYTIME THE STEERING WHEEL IS CRANKED, IT DOES NOT HAPPEN SOMETIMES, IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME. THIS IS MOST LIKELY DO TO POOR LUBRICATION OF A BEARING OR JOINT IN THE STEERING COLUMN. THE SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON AND VEHICLE CHIMES AS WELL BUT THE ESC WORKS
I RECENTLY PURCHASED FOUR (4) GOODYEAR EAGLE ULTRA GRIP GW-3 TIRES (235/55R17) FROM SAMS CLUB IN DOVER, DELAWARE AND THEY WERE SHIPPED FROM THE GOODYEAR WAREHOUSE ALL WITH A DOT DATE OF 3614 ALMOST 4-YEARS OLD! I DONT BELIEVE GOODYEAR SHOULD BE SELLING TIRES WITH A DOT DATE OF 3614. IF YOU PROVIDE ME WITH AN E-MAIL, I CAN FORWARD MY CORRESPONDENCE WITH GOODYEAR CONSUMER RELATIONS.
POWER STEERING PUMP LINE WAS MELTED INTO THE BOLT NEAR THE LINE , ALSO THE BODY OVER A YEAR BEGAN TO RUST...SO IT TOOK 800.00 TO FIX IT
I BOUGHT THIS 2001 AURORA USED IN 2015. THE CHECK ENGINE WAS ON AND WHEN I QUESTIONED PREVIOUS OWNER HE STATED IT WAS A SENSOR THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND IT WAS PUT ON A DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE AND THERE WEREN'T ANY FAILURES, ALERTS OR FAULTY SENSORS DETECTED. JUNE OF 2016 MY DASH BOARD SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING. I CAN'T SEE MY ODOMETER THE GAS HAND DOESN'T WORK AND IT HAS LOST ALL ILLUMINATION. I'VE HAD FUSES CHECKED, REPLACED ETC. IN OCTOBER 2016 MY AIR CONDITIONING UNIT STOPPED WORKING. REPLACED COMPRESSOR, TO NO AVAIL. THE HEATER ONLY BLOWS WARM AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE. OCCASIONALLY I GET A LOW FUEL WARNING WHEN I'M JUST IDLING EVEN
