“The sensor for the power tailgate is not sensitive enough to open / close the tailgate. The front windshield has crack after the winter storm. I believe it was related to the extreme low temperature under massachusetts weather. It is not related to the damage by the highway rocks as I could not found any damage of dents on the glass. The driver seat left side edge appeared cracking after couple months of use. It is a mb tex material which it claims that it supposed to be more durable and care free than regular real leather but actually it wasn't on my car.”
