Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“All gauges lost power on & off each day,until today shut off for good (4-10-15). Also, at first (dec. 2014) lost lights on inside of vehicle & did not effect outside lights until recently when outside also out. Has happened multiple times since first noticed. At first signal lights worked, but not now. Also A/C & radio do not work, plus the doors, windows do not open or close as well. The only door which opens is the drivers door with the key. Sometimes everything comes on & off by itself, (even cd player & radio, but now does not work), when I get in the car to start it. …”
