| We are now replacing the bushing in the steering column for the second time with less than 42,000 miles. this component was replaced originally at 28,000 miles and has failed again. with this failure has caused left wheel bearing to go out. at 58,000 mile the right wheel bearing is now in need of repair, should have gotten the extended warranty, none of this is covered after 36,000 miles. also, the rear air will either blow cold until the thermastat is change to the red setting completely. when taken in with the initial failure of the steering column, i was told that the setting worked fine but would be noted incase of later failure so it might be covered under warranty.*ak | |||
