What owners wrote

While driving 35-40 MPH had to apply brakes hard and pedal went to the floor. Vehicle went through a red light, and jumped a ditch before consumer was able to stop vehicle. Consumer suffered light injuries. Consumer found studs that connect master cylinder to brake booster had broken. Vehicle not taken to dealer yet.

October 2001 CrashInjury

ABS light comes on intermittently. Seems to happen after heavy rain or when there is a lot of moisture in the air. Vehicle has been back to the dealer 3 times in the last month. At first they told me it was a defective g sensor. That was replaced for approx. $600. The second time it went back, the dealer stated that the sensor needed to be recalibrated. It's currently at the dealer for the 3rd time. The service reps have been very polite, however I did pay $600 and have been back to the dealer twice since then.
