I purchased this car at 50,000 miles and at 3 years old, it has been decent to me. Lately I have had really awful electrical gremlins starting at the 100k mark. First the service stabilitrac light will go on and off occasionally with different messages. The check engine light stopped working and I couldn't pass emissions. Then one day I went to the gas station and couldn't get the car to fill with gas. It was at a quarter tank and I needed gas but it took almost a half hour of dripping fuel in slowly to make it work. Then the engine had half as much power as usual and the remote start no longer worked.
I took it to the dealership where I bought it. They had it for 2 months and charged me $1500 to diagnose it and replace the fuse block. The check engine light now worked and was on and the interior lights wouldn't shut off no matter what when the car was on. I tried to get them to fix it but they wanted me to pay more and I refused. I replaced the tank solenoid which is on the drivers side rear tucked behind the bumper. It was 25 bucks and took less than 20 minutes and I pulled the bulbs for the lights. Now I don't have interior lights but everything else seems okay for now. It did pass emissions and all other problems are now resolved, less no dome lights. Dealerships sucks.
