Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Driver door latch stays in the open position, preventing the door from latching closed. After sitting for a while, over night or a few days, door will latch closed again. This is a interment problem. Concerned will occur while driving as it appears to be effected by the electric lock system. Checked on web several others have had this problem also.”

“Right and left turn singles have gone out 6 to 7 times since I have owned the car. When they are replaced they only last a few weeks. My dealers sates that the plugs need replaced. I have heard that this affects 2004 through 20009. With large number I think it should be recalled. 30% of all accidents are caused by not using or faulty turn singles. The dealer charges $200.00 to replace the bulbs per side.”
