“The passenger seat started smoking for no apparent reason I put a paper towel over this to stop it from spreading. It burned a hole in the passenger seat and left two brown hash marks - almost like it would have spread to coils. The car was in stationary position and the engine was off. It was in my driveway on runnymeade drive in marietta, ga.”

“The drivers side power seat motor has failed rendering the seat unmovable, seeing as how the seat automatically moves all the way back, its impossible to reach the petals. The local dealership is aware of this and it's a serious safety issue that needs fixed. It just randomly happened getting out of the car and the next time entering the seat was frozen all the way back. It's a 362.40 repair on an inoperable car, unacceptable.”

“Driver’s climate fault. Temporary lost communication with the climate system When this happens the a/c goes out and the windows will not roll down.
