DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY STALLING OCCURRED CAUSING PROBLEMS TO THE BRAKES AND THE STEERING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER WHO DETERMINED THE TIRE ROD ENDS WERE SHOT AND VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. REPAIRS WERE MADE TO THE CENSOR OF THE VEHICLE TO REPAIR THE PROBLEMS ON THE STEERING AND THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE SOON ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH OVERHEATING CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SMOKE AND AN OIL BURNING SMELL TO OCCUR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY DETERMINED THE CAUSE FOR OVERHEATING WAS DUE TO SLUDGE IN THE MOTOR AND THAT THE COST FOR REPAIRS WERE NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
