CarComplaints.com Notes: How can we give the 2001 model year a "seal of pretty good" when it has some problems with a slipping transmission and a known problem with the speed activation control switch? Because it's not the 2002. That's how.

Dealer stated could not be fixed under recall as bolt was frozen in place. I would have to replace entire seat, not covered by re-call.
