| Numerous complaints identical to those experienced by other owners of this vehicle type. twice now when applying brakes in a panic situation the abs system failed and warning light came on. replaced ecu on brake system once now dealer informs that is must be replaced again at a cost of $1200. i believe this is an extravagant maintenance expense every time you need the anti-lock portion of the braking system. also had to replace front drive shaft due to failure, must replace idler arms every two years due to failure and also had to replace the electrical connecters on the blower switch due to overheating and melting the switch. *nlm | |||
