| 1998-2002 Honda Passport Recalled For Suspension Rust Posted: 17 Dec 2010 02:46 PM PST Honda has announced that it will recall nearly 36,000 Passport utility vehicles in the U.S. market, for a potentially serious safety issue due to rusting at brackets for the rear suspension. If these brackets corrode to an extreme, it could lead to the lower-link bracket to separate from the frame, affecting vehicle handling, according to Honda... |
| 2012 Tesla Model S All-Electric Sedan: Progress and Schedule Posted: 17 Dec 2010 12:30 PM PST It's been a while since we checked in on the car that will likely make or break Silicon Valley electric-car startup Tesla Motors: the Model S, a five-door midsize sports luxury sedan it hopes to launch somewhere toward the end of 2012. Tesla hasn't said much about the Model S lately, but a number of updates are contained in the 8-K update it filed... |
| What Do Nissan Dealers Pay To Prepare For Leaf Electric Cars? Posted: 17 Dec 2010 11:49 AM PST The 2011 Nissan Leaf, at first glance, looks a whole lot simpler to service than conventional gasoline cars; there's no flammable liquid in the tank, no motor oil, no complicated multi-speed transmission either. That said, some dealers are probably feeling a little daunted by the idea of taking a dealership that's configured to sell and service... |
| Stop Whining About Car Costs; Check 2012 Ford Focus Prices in Europe! Posted: 17 Dec 2010 09:37 AM PST It's just like complaining about taxes, which are always too high. New cars just cost too damn much, right? Well, perhaps. But in between bouts of griping, U.S. car buyers should pause for a moment and reflect on how much better off they are than their counterparts in some other markets, including much of Europe. Take the new 2012 Ford Focus... |
| 2011 SRX, Equinox, Terrain Recalled For Seat Belt Failure Risk Posted: 17 Dec 2010 06:42 AM PST If there's one thing you don't want to fail when you're in an accident, it's your seatbelt. The first line of passive defense in a collision, the seatbelt is what keeps you in place to allow the rest of the car's safety mechanisms, such as airbags, crash structures, and active headrests, to work properly. That's why GM is acting quickly to remedy... |
| Survival Tips for a Winter Breakdown: Get Out the Map Posted: 17 Dec 2010 04:51 AM PST Going on a road trip to visit relatives during the winter months, especially around Christmas, is something that many families plan to do this year. In fact, the AAA says that 90 percent of Americans will travel this holiday season – and most of them will be driving. The trip could be trouble, as soon as the weather turns foul. Snowy... |
| Posted: 16 Dec 2010 10:41 PM PST The Basics: The 2011 Mazda MX-5 Miata follows a special formula that's made this model a standout in the market for more than two decades: bring a classic roadster look into the modern age with excellent reliability, great handling—and now, the past couple of years, a weather-tight optional power-folding hardtop. The catch is that there... |
