Check engine light came on and "low engine power" flashed where the odometer is. this caused the rpm's not to go over 2800. code reader claims o2 sensors or throttle control module or catalytic convertor issues. we discovered it was none of the above. to fix problem change 3 relays located under hood in fuse box. relay #8864. then clear codes, should fix issue unless code persists. relays will cause a fire if not changed out asap.

I have had a complete brake job because all of the lines rusted out and failed as i was driving. fortunately, i was able to use the emergency brake to stop safely. i spent rough.y $3,000 to get this repaired. now the fuel lines, fuel cooler and everything attached has rusted out to the point that it is going to be an additiona $2,500 to repair this. also, the complete under carriage and rear end has rusted to the point that i am expecting it to fail at any time. this is not only a dangerous situation, but is extremely costly to the consumer, me. when the brakes failed, i was driving on a street approaching a busy intersection. with no warning at all, the pedal went to the floor and i had no brakes. the repair facility mechanic said he has never seen a system so bad. i keep the vehicle in a garage and have washed the under carriage in the winter to keep road salt from accumulating.
