Seal on transfer case is leaking on 2004 pontiac vibe and so is power steering fluid. Car has 119,000 miles on it. Will it be expensive and will it break down on me?
My only car what are the chances of it breaking down?
The repair want be to bad. The power steering is a common leak. The transfer case isn't all that bad either. I would get estimates from a respected dealer, and ask what guarantee they offer for the price. Your car is worth around 5300.00 The repairs at a guess are around 1200. for a new steering rack, and to pull and reseal transfer case around 1500.00. So your looking at 2700.00 approx. to put into a 5300.00 car. You might just consider trading for a newer model.
