| Driver seat failure- it just plain broke. i weigh 240 lbs, and the driver's seat just broke under my weight getting in. it is now in pieces. the seat frame came apart at a weld near the front left corner. this potentially is an unsafe condition in that i don't know if the seat belts will continue to restrain me properly. i am having it fixed, but i drove around for 20,000 miles in this condition. *nm | |||

| Leather seats: the quailty of the leather was poor to say the least. dealer did replace the rear seat after repeated complaints. speed control: at about 40,000 miles, speed control makes audible sound upon engaging or disengaging. dealer replaced speed control module and this did not stop the problem. interior: the coating on the dash board is peeling. steering: makes autdible snapping nioise when turning. dealer cannot find problem. transmission: engine cuts out when under load at 1800 -2500 rpm on hills. tachometer jumps up and down. dealer had the car for 4 days and couldn't recreate the problem. i took them for a test drive and recreated it over and over again.*jb | |||
