“Door weatherseal strip, bought car late 2016, since 2017 I get a loud sharp swisle noise at 70mph in open area with side winds, noise it so loud & sharp & fast that I have almost wrecked because it comes on so fast & then goes away, dealership has finally determined it's the weatherstripping that is obvious a manufacturer defect but because it's out of warranty & my extended won't cover it & the dealership wants to charge $300. I figure many other people have this issue also.”

“I bought this car and after I signed the papers they let me inspect it. I saw some rust on the joints and screws that held the tires. They said it was surface rust. I took it home and examined it closed. I found that the rust is very extensive. It included the metal that held the tire to the car and it goes deep. The rust flaked off in my hand. I took the vehicle back the next morning. They told me I could exchange it for a similar vehicle but that all of them had the same rust. I took pictures of some of the rust. I told them to keep the car and I stopped payment on the check. …”
