I am an automotive forensic investigator. I have inspected this vehicle, which was involved in a rollover incident, and found the same "energy management loop" as was recalled in NHTSA recall #03V117000. The driver of this vehicle was a 29 year old gentleman, 6 foot tall and 200 pounds. He was fully ejected and fatally injured. The survival space surrounding the driver's seat had remained intact, and likely the driver would have not sustained a catastrophic injury but for the 10" of extra slack added to the safety belt system during the rollover.
Horn contact and/ or cancelling cam was replaced twice. When turning the wheel certain places have a dead spot. Also, the passenger's seat does not lock in place, it rocks. When pulling seat belt across consumer, and leaning forward to adjust the radio, seat belt locks up. While driving down the road at approximately 20mph in the neighborhood vehicle just dies. Took it to the dealer and was told it was just the battery. Had the battery replaced, and still the same problem. Contacted dealer and manufacturer.
