“On september 24th I was driving and the floor mat got pushed forward and wrapped around the exposed steering column. I had to stop the car in the middle of a busy street to get out and manually pull the floor mat out of the steering column because I was unable to steer the car even to the side of the road. …”

“Check engine light randomly comes on at higher speeds on the freeway and then goes back off. Last time it was on, went to repair shop and had it hooked up to the dialysis machine and it stated that the thermostat needed replacing. But the check engine light never stays on. After I stop the car and restart it, it's off. It also randomly lurches forward or shakes while in drive or parked.

Had brought it to the dealership at least twice previously for ongoing rattling, incomplete closure and excessive wind noise from this roof. Eventually, they supposedly replaced the roof unit but the issues have continued ultimately resulting in this latest issue of the front roof piece literally blowing off the vehicle. …”
