Now I have to find a vehicle that will tow my van reliably.

Horse and Buggy would probably more reliable. Ever tried to get servicing and parts for F trucks and Dodge ram friend that owns local caravan centre owns one of each they are both good to drive heaps of power not good to take into the local suppermarket they don't fit. My wife is only 5ft tall can't see over the dash

signwilson,...sorry to hear about your frustrations. To help you feel better, maybe you should find another line of work. How about trying an occupation that you'll actually enjoy doing .

I used to be interested in this topic since ive never heard or seen this happen to any vehicle. Source of the problem, repair procedures, warranty claims, outcome, different peoples opinions, etc. But now im lost as to the point of this thread. Its not going anywhere.

It could have been useful for everyone if all the facts were clear from the outset, posts didn't contradict previous posts, and punctuation was used (at least full stops ).

as mentioned before, maybe time to close this thread?
