“After shopping for about 15 minutes, I was in my parked vehicle with my sibling in the target parking lot where the car was on but not running . I opened the automatic felt cover to where the sunroof does not open as well only the felt cover will open. I completely started my car so that it's now running and this is when my sunroof made a loud popping sound almost like a gunshot and started opening unprovoked then completely shattered over both of our heads.”

“Since purchasing my car in 2015, I've had to have the A/C knob replaced 3 times for it melting on the inside and disconnecting, being unable to control the fan. That seems extremely hazardous and ridiculous that nothing has been said about it before. I've searched many forums and it has been a common from problem for many people with this same car. Just so happened that someone who mentioned theirs was smoking inside of the car suggested we can actually report the issue, so I am submitting mine in hopes it's be noticed.”

“Blower motor stops working about every 1.5 years. It was initially reported as a blower motor recall and the dealer replaced it twice but it went out a 3rd time about 2.5 years ago. They searched for the problem after realizing they had replaced the blower motor twice but could not locate the defect, at which point they charged me over $300.00 for their efforts to locate the problem. They wanted to keep looking for the problem but I told them no, just put it back together that I wasn't going to pay them to search for their defect. …”
