| Dt*: the contact stated while driving 25 mph, the left side of the air guide on the vehicle detached and came partially away from the vehicle. it was not seen by a dealer, but the manufacturer was notified. also, 2 years prior, the automatic window control switch refused to activate some of the power windows on a constant basis. the first control switch was replaced by a private repair shop, but the problems corrected for awhile.. the second time the problem occurred, the switch was replaced, and the repair corrected the problem. the control switch had to be replaced twice. updated 01/10/07. *jb | |||
