What owners wrote
On may 12,2001 while driving westbound on I-290, a car in the left lane cut me off. I swerved my SUV to the right to avoid an accident, and the truck lost control, tip over on the driver side and started to rollover. The car stopped on its top(roof). I had taken the car into the dealer ship on 4/5/01 to repair the stabilizer links/bushing, and on 4/10/01 the rear springs had to be reseated. I only had this truck for 2.5 months.
Front wheel bearings had to be replaced for a second time. The car has only 60,000 miles on it! The second time, the bearings were no longer covered under warranty and I incurred over $1000 in repair costs.
