Indianola, IA

MY AIR CONDITIONER WENT OUT (ENTIRE SYSTEM) JUST AFTER HAVING IT A YEAR, I THEN PROCEEDED TO HAVE TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED, ALONG WITH MANY MANY OTHER SMALL PARTS, SUCH AS IDLER PULLY, WATER PUMP, ETC, ALL BEFORE MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS UP. JUST AFTER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS UP AT 80,000 MILES I HAD TO REPLACE MY RADIATOR. MY ENGINE WAS BABIED, MY HUSBAND CHANGED THE OIL FAITHFULLY EVERY 2500 MILES, CHANGED AIR FILTERS, FLUSHED THE TRANSMISSION, ANYTHING TO MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE, BECAUSE BY THIS TIME I WAS TRAVELING FAR TO WORK EVERYDAY, (35MILES 1 WAY), SO I HAVE PUT A LOT OF HIGHWAY MILES ON IT, THEN WITHOUT WARNING THE HEADGASKET BLEW, SENDING ANTIFREEZE INTO THE ENGINE. IF I HAD KNOWN ABOUT THE PROBLEMS THEY WERE HAVING, I WOULD HAVE HAD IT TAKEN CARE OF, SINCE I DIDN'T I MISSED A LOT OF WORK AND HAD TO BUY A NEW CAR, SINCE THE EXPENSE OF REPAIR WASNT WORTH IT. THIS CAR HAS BEEN A COMPLETE LEMON, AND I HAVE THE $6000 WORTH OF WARRANTY WORK AS PROOF, PLUS THE ENGINE BLOWING.
