What owners wrote
Beginning in 4-99, we have had numerous things go wrong with our new vehicle. First the "check engine" light came on, ac/heater quit/ manfold/exhaust leak/ now all the gauges have gone crazy on the dash & I just got it out of the shop on 1/17/2000, for the very same thing.

After replacing the fuel pump, radiator, and performing an additional tune-up but problem is still unresolved. Now find that there is a crack in the intake manifold and the exhaust manifold has completely cracked.
