Engine light came on and was taken in and found that the exhaust donuts were burned up and needed to be replaced at 52000 miles and at 64000 miles we are replacing the same ones again, I have had problems with the brakes and no one can seem to find the problems and we end up replacing the brake pads,

When brakes are applied front pulls to left, and sometimes to right. This also happens when a bump in road is hit. Dealer has worked on this vehicle a number of times, but problem has not been solved. Consumer also complains of soft pedal, steering wheel also pulsates when braking, dealer has switched rotors from side to side, replaced out of round rotors, replaced front brake pads twice, and resurfaced rotors and drums, dealer rotated tires and vehicle still pulled. Steering wheel found off center. Center seat recliner handle broke, dealer replaced handle. Vehicle experienced oil leak. Driver door power switch loose in door. Reverse low planetary gear was broken causing a grinding noise at low gear, valve body and gear were scored due to metal in transmission. Air pump replaced due to being very noisy.

Exhaust system which has been replaced twice makes a grinding and crunching sound. It's still under warranty.brake system has been replaced twice. All together vehicle has been in shop for brakes about several times. Brakes failed while traveling at 45mph with no warning. Emergency brakes were used to stop. Consumer had to pay for service only first time. Dealer has been nice about it, consumer wants a new vehcile.
