| This vehicle has been a nightmare. the brakes have failed, the steering column has gone out, i had to replace all the tires and get a front end alignment, the alternater went out, and the transmission has never worked correctly. it clanks loudly when shifting gears, doesn't idle correctly, and shuts off. i have had it rebuilt on three separate occasions. on one occasion it even caught on fire. the transmission is back in the shop now. *ak( dot number: tire size: 16 inch ) | |||
