| Drive belt tensioner pulley progressively misaligned itself over time, causing the accessory drive belt to come off . this leaves the driver with no power steering, no charging system, and a damaged accessory drive belt. the first incident happened on 02/24/1997. the second incident happend on 1/14 2000. i believe a t.s.b exists concerning this issue. in my opinion, it should be a recall. this can result in a motorist with a weak battery stranded. *ak | |||
