 1. headlight focus and illumination has been very poor, no solution seems to be available. 2. front disk brake rotors warped at the first hard application of the brakes. dealer attempted repair four or five times and when they would no longer honor the warranty took the vehicle to an independant shop and they finally fixed the problem. 3. twice the right driver's seat back hinge has failed when the driver sat back. repair accomplished by independent shop. 4. after noticing a strong smell of gasoline, discovered fuel leaking from the front of both left and right fuel injection rails. vehicle has been taken to the dealer for repair but seems that there is a long waiting list for the repair parts which are back ordered.
