A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
I just bought this van a couple months ago and already had to put on four new tires and a front tie rod. I also had the recall done on the back axle. The last time I drove it, it ran fine on the highway; but in town it started jerking. I thought it was the brake rotors grabbing. I went to a friend's house and he noticed fluid on the ground. I checked it and it was tranny fluid. It was pouring out when I started the van. I took it to a garage and they want $2,650.00 to fix it! They said it is coming out the front seal and replacing the seal alone will not fix the problem! When it is parked, I don't lose as much fluid. I went to another garage and he wants $3,000.00.
This is my only transportation. I sold two vehicles to buy this one because it has less than half the mileage on each of the other cars! Now I am walking. It is impossible for me to come up with this kind of money. I am a disabled veteran and live on a fixed income.
