| I have always maintained my car regularly, but i've had so many problems with it. first of all, i've always had brake trouble, second: my turn signals will sometimes come on when i hit the brakes (or sometimes not at all), my defrost keeps breaking (only vent and bi-level will work); my horn died for no reason a few months ago, and today my car won't start (i drove to church, and it worked fine, but when i later tried starting my car, it wouldn't start. it appeared as though the battery was dead | |||

| 1. every time it rains outside i have a lake on the inside of the car, mainly on the passenger side in the back and in the trunk which is molding the carpet and items kept inside. 2. the back up light on the driver side doesn't work properly, due to the moisture. 3. the turn signal on the passenger side blinks really fast, and stays on on the inside of the car. 4. the turn signal on the driver side has to be manually turned off after turning left. 5. the steering wheel has locked on a steep turn resulting me going off road, luckily not hitting anyone. 6. headlights are very poor at night. 7. radio reception is getting worse. stations that used to come in won't anymore. 8. car shakes at different speeds and at a light. 9. there is glare on the windsheild from dash that causes poor visibility in the day time.*ak | |||
