| Oil leaking from head gasket, was discovered during inspection of shifter cable which wasnt installed properly after replacement due to a recall. the extended warranty had ran out the day before it was noticed, although it had apparently been leaking for awhile. cruise control quit working, when you depress the button to turn it on, the light comes on but the speed cannot be set and after a few tries the light will go out and you cannot get it to come back on. a/c vents, there is a strange smell that smells like mildew or mold that comes from the vents when you turn on the air conditioner or heat, this has been adressed with a dealership and was taken care of but returned a few days later. mr | |||

| Complete interior windows fog up and frost over, while defroster is running at full. this creates a hazard, in that, the driver can no longer see out of the side or rear windows. this has happened whenever the temperature goes below 32 degrees f. i iappreciate you looking into this inquiry. *ak | |||

| This vehicle was sitting in the driveway- not running. we went outside, and saw the rear window completely shattered with a hole on the drivers side measuring about 2 inches long. it appeared that it originated from the inside - as if the vehicle imploded. this is because the break in the glass was pointed upward (from the inside out). it did not appear to be weather related as the windows were open about 1-inch and the outside temp. was 78 degrees and sunny. it also did not appear to be a baseball or flying object as there was also a similar crack on the other side but it did not actually break. once again, the crack was pointed upward- but did not actually form a hole. this was just a case of the rear window shattered for no apparent reason- perhaps the glass is not tempered correctly??. *ak | |||

| Heard a squeaking noise coming from the front end, also could be felt in the steering wheel. dealer said it was the sway bar links and ball joint, could result in control lost. to no avail these repairs did not solve the problem. second opion said it was the steering rack. replace right side mirror. | |||
