“The windshield wipers stopped mid windshield after I had taken into the shop that day I called to let them know if they perhaps unhooked somthing, except they worked for a few miles. I took it back and they said I needed to by a new motor. My husband said it was unhooked, but the wipers stick up about 1/3 of the way on the windshield”
NHTSA complaint #11061447, filed 2018-01, 45,000 miles“We were driving and smelled a burning smell coming from the drivers door. The drivers side windows switch, door lock switch would not work. We took it to our mechanic and he determined that the drivers side switch had burned up and melted to the door wiring harness. The switch and harness both had to be replaced.”
NHTSA complaint #10484118, filed 2012-11, 63,009 miles“The car has leaked since we bought it. We have had it in the shop several time at the place we bought it and it continues to leak. Recently, the leak has started to affect the electrical workings of the car. The floor has been saturated with water and when approaching a stop, water will pour from the ceiling, soaking the driver and rear passengers. The water will run down the inside of the windshield which impacts visibility.”
NHTSA complaint #10597916, filed 2014-06, 60,000 miles“I have had several problems with this vehicle. The washer fluid light is always on, no matter how many times I have taken it for repair the power steering went out 8 months after the vehicle three months later at this present time. After having the vehicle for not even a year, the transmission has given out beyond repair. I have gotten several different people to look at it, its beyond repair (rebuild). …”
NHTSA complaint #10454734, filed 2012-04, 78,000 miles“Wipers quit working at 40mph in a freezing fog/rain. I lifted hood and could see wiper linkage dangling inside cowl of vehicle. I have read and seen that this is a open recall for vehicle in states with common winter weather.”
