I WENT TO FIRESTONE IN ST. JOE, MO AND HAD MY AIR CONDITIONING RECHARGED AFTER 9 YEARS OF DRIVING MY VAN. THEY TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE A HOSE ON THE FRONT OF THE VECHICAL AND THAT THEY NEEDED TO THEN ADD FREON TO THE SYSTEM. THAT WAS IN JULY 19, 2001. IT DIDN'T SEEM AS COLD AS IT HAD BEFORE BUT IT WAS OK. THEN WHEN I NEEDED THE AIR THIS SUMMER I HAD NONE. THEY SAID THAT THE HOSE THAT THEY INSTALLED THEY LATTER WERE TOLD WOULDN'T HOLD THE PRESSURE (I THINK) BUT THAT NOW SENCE IT WAS OVER 6 MONTHS THEY WOULDN'T OR COULDN'T DO ANYTHING. IT COST ME $304.07. THEY SAY THAT YOU PEOPLE KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?*AK

Exterior Lighting
12/22/2001
I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AT NIGHT ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND HAD THE HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY GO OUT ON ME. THE SWITCH FOR THE LIGHTS SEEMS TO BE WARM AT THESE TIMES. THE HEATER SEEMS TO CAUSE THE SWITCH TO HEAT UP AND WHEN IT GETS HOT THE LIGHTS GO OFF. IT MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT ONE OF THESE TIMES IF IT ISN'T FIXED. I'M NOT SURE IF REPLACING THE SWITCH WILL HELP OR IF IT WILL HAPPEN EVEN WITH A NEW SWITCH BEACUSE OF THE HEAT PROBLEM. MAYBE THE DESIGN OF WHERE THE SWITCH IS IS BAD. PLEASE ADVISE ME ON WHAT TO DO. THANK YOU.*AK
