“Paint has been coming off all over the car, causing rust spots. Brakes sometimes do not catch and you have to push the pedal all the way to the floor. Also the brake and brake pads have to be changed once a month because they wear out too quickly. The power locks stick in the cold weather and will not lock or unlock until it warms up. When I was in a crash the drivers airbag did not deploy causing me to hit my face on the steering wheel.”
