SERVICE BRAKES
THE BRAKE PROPORTIONING VALVE IS FAILING, THIS PART DELIVERS BREAKING FLUID TI EACH BREAK. THE DEALER CAN NOT GET THE PART, I HAVE TRIED TO FIND IT ON THE INTERNET WITH NOT LUCK. SINCE THIS IS CRITICAL TO SAFETY I SHOULD NOT DRIVE THE CAR, HOWEVER AT TIMES I MUST. THE CAR HAS ABOUT 165,000 MILES. THEY HAVE TO PROVIDE SAFETY BELTS FOR LIFE, WHY NOT BREAK SYSTEMS? SINCE IT WAS IN FOR SERVICE THIS CAME UP, NO INCIDENT HAPPENED

STRUCTURE:BODY
TARGA TOP LEAKS WHEN IT RAINS OR WHEN WASHED. IT HAS BEEN CONTINUOUS SINCE I PURCHASED CAR IN 1996. DEALER TEMPORARILY FIXED THE CREAKING NOISE FROM ROOF, BUT TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FIX THE LEAKING ROOF B/C CAR WAS PASSED WARRANTY. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM, NOT SOMETHING I CAUSED AND I KNOW SEVERAL OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM.*AK
