I vow never to go to napa again. They sold me a bum axle that made me remove and pull apart the whole transaxle to the tune of hundreds of dollars. All I asked them for was a replacement axle, but they wanted absolutely nothing to do with my problem, and denied any responsibility. They suck.

I also had a battery explode. Starter was cranking slowly and then, ka-boom! It sounded like a high powered rifle.
