Common problem with these are the rear wheel bearings going bad. You can hear them grinding in the rear during a test drive. Otherwise, these are pretty decent vehicles.

Interesting, I was thinking of problems with the front wheel drive system and not the rear wheels or rear bearings. The car has 33000 miles on it do you know about the average miles on these cars when the problem occurs?...Thanks

I cannot elaborate on estimated mileage since I have seen them go bad at 15,000 miles.

I also thin that it was all about your front wheel drive system. I asked my Uncle about it last month.
