I have pictures of the throttle linkage and my mechanic will back me up about the linkage.”
NHTSA complaint #705075, filed 1999-03“Internal loss of coolant started shortly after purchase. When I determined that it was an abnormal amount, the warranty was done. Car is presently down until I can afford the head gaskets replacement and possibly replacement of a cracked head. Upon state inspection, leaking rear wheel cylinders were discovered on both wheels. Also, both rear struts were determined to be faulty. Whenever it is very cold, the accelerator linkage sticks and I must shift to neutral to stop without sliding. …”
