BRAKES - I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE ALL 4 CALIPERS. EACH CALIPER FAILURE REQUIRED ME ALSO TO REPLACE THAT PAIR OF ROTORS. I AM CURREBTLY ON MY 3RD MASTER CYLINDER. EACH FAILURE HAS BEEN CHARACTERIZED BY PEDAL FADING AT INTERSECTION AND CAR ROLLING INTO INTERESCTION. ACCIDENT AVOIDED BY PULLING UP THE HANDBRAKE OR PUTTING CAR IN REVERSE. FAILURE IN EQUALIZER RESULTS IN SEVERE PULLING TO ONE SIDE UNDER HARD BRAKING. ELECTRICAL - CAR STALLED AT 55 MPH. DESPITE LOSS OF POWER STEERING, I WAS ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY AVOID OTHER VEHICLES, MANEUVER TO A SIDE STREET AND BRING VEHICLE TO A SAFE STOP. GAGES - THERE IS A LOUD SQUEAKING/RATTLE COMING FROM THE SPEEDOMETER GAGE. I AM UNCERTAIN WHETHER IT AFFECTS THE ACCURACY OF THE REPORTED SPEED. CAM SHAFT - OIL LEAK FROM SEAL ON LEFT SIDE JUST BEHIND THE DISTRIBUTER CAP
