IVE HAD THE BELTS AND PULLEY CHANGED SEVERAL TIMES....4 DAYS AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR THE BELT BROKE AND I WAS STUCK ON THE HIGHWAY (ANOTHER STATE FROM HOME) AT NIGHT IN THE WINTER BY MYSELF WITH NO CELL PHONE AND NOONE WOULD HELP. I AM 25 YO FEMALE NURSE, CAN FIX PEOPLE NOT CARS... I WAS BEYOND PISSED.... EVERYTIME ITS COLD OUT IT MAKES A SCREECHING NOISE UNTIL THE CAR WARMS UP
