Alternator failed.
Vehicle hesitates while driving at various speeds consumer concerned about being rear ended.nlm
Transmission failed causing difficulty when engaging into reverse.
There was a thumping sound after the brakes were applied, a technician indicated the cause of the noise was due to the fact that when the brake pedal was depressed, the brake bridged the rear wheel cylinder gasket and subsequently the brake fluid built up on the brake lining/pad of the brake shoe, the brake fluid is manufactured with a silicone base, which apparently coats the brake lining, and can not be removed, therefore there is potential brake failure, consumer was informed that the problem is the silicone in the brake fluid formulation.

Car caught on fire in the driveway, with no key and in park. My son had come in the house and said mom your car is smoking. I had parked the car approx 20 mins before after a 6 mile trip, it was winter, thank god i did not park in the garage or it would have gone up in smoke too, as i live in the country and it took a long time for the trucks to arrive. I am glad i was not a young mom with kids in car seats which takes alot of time. Scared the crap outta us, cause the garage (tools, wood, vehicles, stuff was so very close to the car and garage is very close to our home(keepsakes, everything).
