My max is not playing nice.

77K and in the shop again with a blow radiator. I don't understand where the quality went on this one. So far I have been through the following since 32K
O2 sensor, EGR proplems,Ac compressor,evaporator,CV Joint, and now the radiator... over 2000 dollars worth of work before 80K? Is anyone else seeing this many probs? I'm so frustrated. If I would not have bought the extended warranty then I would be screwed! Sorry, just have to vent!

your cv most likely went bad because of a ripped boot. which can happen at anytime. more likely with age as the rubber gets brittle.
02 sensors go bad it's a known fact.
how did you spend 2k on just fixing those problems? goto the stealership?
EGR problem i assume means it got clogged...which you can fix for free.....
my buddy works at a shop and he loves to fix none broken parts. means he gets paid. cuz when he is sitting around doing nothing he doesn't make $$$.
how is your radiator blown?

good luck with your car...

i hear ya...i think problems are inevitable
iev got about 109 000 on my max and ive had to replace evaporator core for the a/c, radiator a coupl days ago, cv joint. and some other little stuff...
luckily my mechanic is very cheap.
just curious, how much are you paying for your radiator replaced
i got a brand new metal one (my stock one was plastic on top) installed and all that for 180
