In summer of 2000 driveshaft at rear universal joint snapped in-two. Again, in spring of this year same problem occurred. Both events replaced at dealer' S facility. Initial failure was a warranteed event second was at my cost. Today (6/11/01) the rear differential 'pinion' was found to be faulty. I truly think there is a metallurgical problem her. Dealer personnel are unable to provide causal information. So far no injuries or accidents resulting from these problems but clearly this is indicative of metallurgical failures.
