ON JULY 22, 2005, I PAID THE DEALER $615.74 TO REPLACE A SHORTED AIR PUMP. I BROUGHT IT IN SINCE THE LIGHT GAUGES WERE TURNING ON. THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHTED ON AND OFF. ONE WEEK LATER, THE A/C STOPPED WORKING. THE DEALER CHARGED ME $105.19 FOR THE DIAGNOSIS. ON AUG. 10, I PAID ANOTHER SHOP $852.08 TO REPLACE THE A/C COMPRESSOR. ON AUG. 30, MY S-10 STALLED AND HASN'T WORKED SINCE THEN. A MECHANIC SAID THE ENGINE HAS TO BE REPLACED (ANOTHER $3000 +) DUE TO OVERHEATING OF THE RADIATOR. THERE WAS NO PRIOR INDICATION THAT THE RADIATOR WAS LEAKING OR HEATING EXCEPT WHEN THE LIGHT GAUGES WERE TURNING ON IN JULY. I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK BRAND NEW IN 2000 AND HAVE SPENT OVER $7000 IN REPAIRS AND REGULAR MAINTENANCE SINCE THEN. THE BATTERY ACID HAS LEAKED. BRAKE PADS KEEP WEARING OUT. SEVERAL AIR INJECTION MALFUNCTIONS AND PUMPS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. I'VE PURCHASED AT LEAST 2 SETS OF TIRES. IT HAS LESS THAN 72,000 MILES. *JB
