fuck this thing in the ass with a sharp stick.
add to the list crack in windsheild grew about 2 ft
randomly stalls in reverse
tonight it died on 104 just outside medley center, would crank and start but die, thought simple and maybe out of gas. thankfully a girlfriend was about to stop by my house and in the neighborhood and came and picked me up,. grabbed my truck a strap, some gas and jumper cables since the battery died. towed it to target to work on it but still wouldnt run, ended up towing it home with this poor girl driving it , battery died on it again she had no lights or wipers with the snow. got home went to the store came back and didnt want to leave the battery dead so charged it up and cranked it for shits and gigs and fired right up. google says symptoms of bad cps
