| When the defrost steams the windows there is a significant amount of water/moisture that enters the passenger compartment. creates a visibility hazard, fogs all windows. water also drains onto floorboards. parking brake disengaging is very intermittent. never can tell if it will hold. relying solely on reverse gear for holding vehicle. have ran out of gas twice with fuel gauge problem. goes all the way up when filled, but will not go below 1/4 of a tank. consistent problem. shifting into first often requires first shifting into fifth then back to 1st in order to engage. oh, forgot to mention, passenger side door will not unlock, intermittent also. *ak | |||
