NHTSA complaint #10616444, filed 2014-07, 100,900 miles“The windows do not work and this problem keeps happening even after it was fixed, it wasn't the motor, switches or anything else, the wiring is bad somewhere and it went back out after the warranty expired. I hope this is a recall so something can get done and stay done.”
