Love the SUV, have had a good time with it but.....

My car is in the shop again today. I took it in to fix the recalled fuel pump and a leak in the coolant overflow bottle, turns out it needs a new timing belt too.

It seems like it's always 2K+ when I take this car in to the Dealer!

I'm approaching 100K miles, so the Timing belt isn't a surprize, the labor hours are shocking though.

Last winter I was having odd problems with the dash lights, turns out a rat moved in and chewed up parts of my wiring harness -- that was mostly covered by insurance, but the 90K service and deductable made it another 2K visit.

Here's hoping the transmission doesn't go out again. I definitely got my moneys worth on the 100K warranty.
