I have taken it 2 times to the dealer. The first they told me they knew of the problem but there was nothing they could do since they didin't have a fix. Last time I took it about 2 months ago they told me my car wasn't in the recall list. I checked the part and it is in fact the model that has the issue. What are they waiting for me to crash.”
