“At just under 60,000 miles, the rear back up camera stopped working, resulting in a safety hazard while backing up. When I contacted the dealer, I was told they are familiar with the issue, but it's commonly in the stereo head unit, which is not covered under warranty, and would not look at it as they said it's costly , up to $800 to replace the head unit.”

I took the car to the dealer they could find nothing wrong. A month later they came on again, the dealer could find nothing wrong. The next time the lights came on it was airbag service required . I took the car to the dealer, they diagnosed the ecu going bad. Now, when a light comes on, which is often, I don't have any idea if something is really not working. They told me it would be a week to get the part, today they told me the part is on back order. …”
