not too many problems... kind of a noisy driveline, though.

I've had mine since July of 05 and only have about 11K miles. The only problem I had with it was that sometimes it would stall after a long drive. This was a known problem and the dealer replaced the fuel pump; no more problems since.

The most common problems reported by others over the past three years have been an issue with the gas tank where the pump shuts off before the tank is full. Another common problem is a water leak on the passenger side that causes problems with the electrical system. Not all cars have these problems.

With 55K miles the car is definitely out of warranty so make sure you have it throroughly checked out. Check the rug on the passenger side for mold or possible signs of wetnes. Have the owner fill the tank in front of you. Check inside the rear wheel weels for burnt rubber. This is an indication that the guy did a lot of burn outs.

Good luck

Thanks so much...found them on the WheelMax site for $163 a piece. Seems like a good price, is that in the ballpark of what you found?
