What owners wrote
Continuous problems with overheating, when this happens all brakes and power steering fails. Failures resulted in two accidents.
Stalling on interstate and city driving when temperature gets very hot. Losing the power in brakes and the ability to control the vehicle's steering. The car can be started again when it has cooled down. This problem is very dangerous. *nlm **dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis*734325
