“I had a couple electrical problems with this vehicle. Fist had to repair the AC 3 times, radio twice (replaced it on the second time). Two months ago breaking lights stopped working. Went to the dealer and got it fixed (took it to midas but they could not figure out what the problem was). Then I notice that it would work only when I push the break pedal strongly and sometimes it would not work at all. Now they are not working again and I will take it to the dealer to repair. All the 3 braking lights do not work. It is not the fuse that you can easily access. …”
