I've decided to bite the bullet and fix it.The part was 1100.00 and Christian Brothers will install for 89.00 because they felt bad for me.( great people) This is the way I had to go. To some of the people who don't understand why this is a issue I would say to them, this car is the transportation for my family, we cant afford repairs such as this and it really hurts us to make this repair. When I got this car, yes it was 15 years old but I was relying on the company name and reputation, I am disappointed !
