What owners wrote
Consumer was driving at 40-45 MPH when suddenly motor froze, and vehicle started to pull to left/ lost all steering capability/hit a concrete divider ,and then vehicle rolled over . Consumer noticed that of one of screws that held power steering to frame fell off, and it got stuck between wheel and frame which contributed to crash,causing injuries.
While driving the vehicle engine died out, lost oil pressure. Took the vehicle to the dealer and they refuse to work on the vehicle as a warranty, due to the build up of sludge in the engine. Dealer will only replace the engine if the consumer pays the amount of $5,000. Ph
