“I have had many problems that is costing me lots of money now to fix. Five years ago, my distributor cap cracked, reason unknown. Driven by old lady. Because it cracked, it caused water to be able to seep in, causing the car to stall out. Don't know why it would have cracked. Another problem it has is when I went to use the cruise control, springs flew out of it. I had never used it before. Another problem is the axles, cv joints and steering kit. Everything went out on my car. One lead to the next. …”

“Uniroyal tiger paw touring tr tire 185/60/14. The tire is starting to develop splits 1 1/2 inches below the top off the tire on the sidewall.there are splits 6 inches in length. I bought these tires in january 2003. Currently there is 24,000 miles on the tires. I believe if the tire isnt replaced soon it was cause a dangerous blowout. I dont know how long the tire has been like this,I noticed when I was checking air pressure. This isnt a road hazard issue. I have never hit anything to cause the tire to do this. I also believe the tread will seperate from the casing.”
