The driver's side turn signal kept going out and when you would take the bulb out and look at it, the inside of the socket was always melted, which caused the light to go out. I've gone through about 12 bucks a month for about a year or two replacing those stupid bulbs. After either going illegal, due to not wanting to buy yet again another bulb, I went online to do research on the matter. Apparently this happens to everyone with this car. I looked online and found the part I needed at Advanced Auto Parts and guess what, it cost me only $9.00, they were on sale. I swapped parts and that was about 6 months ago, haven't replaced one bulb since. THANK GOD!! I can't begin to explain how many parts I have already replaced on this car. You would think paying as much as you do in the beginning would last you for a few years,,,,nope.

The wiring harness literally burnt right through. It was smoking and burning every time the car was on to the point where the wires for the headlights burnt through and the headlights would not work. It took 6 diagnosis appointments for someone to figure out the issue.
