“I had replaced the water pumps getting ready to replace it again and when it went out the power steering messed up I'm also having issues with the timing belt it was replaced at 112,000 miles and it was inspected at 121,000 and was okay but it snapped on me the other day the highway replacing it for the second time now at 188,000+ miles not even 100,000 miles later from the first time. This isn't cheap also my heater core went again.”
