IGNITION COILS KEEP FAILING. JUST REPLACED IN FEBRUARY AGAIN IN MAY AND WILL HAVE TO AGAIN HERE ANY DAY.

THE FRONT FLOOR GETS VERY HOT WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION EVEN WHEN THE AIRCONDITION IS RUNNING

COILS FOR CYLINDERS 2-4 INEXPLICABLY FAILED AS WELL AS THE PLUGS AND NEED TO BE REPLACED IN ORDER TO REPAIR MISFIRE CODE. ENGINE PURGE VALVE ALSO NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.
