“The right passenger door will not lock. The electronic locking system on the doors started clicking, when I stopped and put the car in park. I was able to get the other doors to lock, but the right door stopped working. Also the overhead night light is no working. The car istotally dark at night when I open the doors.”
NHTSA complaint #11074871, filed 2018-02, 90,000 miles“Every morning the car has to have a jump! We bought a battery! That didn't help! We took it to the shop, they couldn't figure it out but said it was something to do with the electrical but didn't know what, so we started digging on our own and you have to take the fuse out to the radio for the car to start! So after spending ALL that money that's what it is, we can't listen to music to start our every morning but now it is getting worse, something else is draining the battery! And no one knows what!”
NHTSA complaint #11437073, filed 2021-10“Sometimes when my car is parked in my garage all of the doors lock without me using the fob.I did have the dealer look at this issue,but they were not able to recreate my issue.so when I get my oil change I make sure the driver's side window is down,so the car doesn't lock on the mechanic with the keys inside.I also feel that my car doesn't get enough miles to the gallon and it should of been included in the last recall.”
NHTSA complaint #10549648, filed 2013-10“The car dies, unknown, mechanics don't know! It's in the wires somewhere, the backup camera doesn't work, the radio doesn't work! Even with the the fuse in and everything working the backup camera still doesn't work, and as soon as you shut the car off it doesn't start up again! Nothing was replaced it's still everything from the factory so you tell me what's wrong!!”
