“2 complaints - side window latches do not stay latched if opened even once. Had them replaced, then they were reopened and now will no longer stay latched properly, they continually pop open. 2nd complaint - have had this vehicle for 3 years and the boots for the front end keep tearing. We are replacing one of them for the 2nd time along with cv joint.”

NHTSA complaint #10100659, filed 2004-11

“Vibration felt in front end and pulling to left. Steering wheel shook and was difficult to control over 55 MPH. Serviced several times at dealer. Mechanic could not reproduce the problem. Stated it could be the tires. Had tires aligned and rotated, no change. Bought new tires, still no change. Foul odor smells like sulfur. Dealer stated it is from the cheap gas purchased from military installation gas stations. Drove vehicle until almost empty then fill tank at shell station. Foul odor returned when fuel was at 1\2 tank. Hard start upon ignition sounds like metal rubbing against metal. …”
