Transmission(auto) failure : flywheel "shattered" due to bad torque converter and flexplate(July 23,1996) starter bolt broke while driving at 55mph. Starter had to be replaced.(May 24, 1997). Starting difficulty. Starter bad and replaced again, plus replaced bad flexplate/flywheel again for 2nd time(Aug 26, 1997). Starter shorting out. Replaced starter for 3rd time(Sept 9,1999).

Windshield wiper failure, pulse module bad(Aug 16,1996) and wiper failure again intermittantly, replaced under recall(Sep. 1, 1999). Seatbelt driver's side retractor broken, replaced under warranty(Aug 26,1997) seatbelt passenger replaced under recall (Sep 1, 1999). Window crank handle snapped in two while cranking window down. Sharp jagged edges cut hand and fingers.(Sep 1,1999). Horn inoperable on several occasions, twice when I needed it to alert an encroaching vehicle which almost hit me. This problem was unable to be reproduced at the dealer service center. Still a potential safety problem/liability(May 15, 1997-ongoing intermittantly, and dealer would not replace unit). Throttle stuck open at high speed (45-50mph) on at least five occasions, causing me great fear, extremely dangerous potential for accident(May 1996 to present).

I contacted the dealership on 6/30/98 because of another safety recall of the seat belts, but the representative on the phone told me he had no knowledge of this condition, even though I heard about it on national news and your web site. I consider this to be a potentially life threatening manufactures defect.
