3 problems :#1 the wheel pressure light stays on when idle and when I'm driving it but, my tires are at the same psi. Makes me keep thinking something is wrong. #2 in the winter time the rubber molding around doors sticks bad and starts to pull itself away from the glue keeping it on. #3 during the winter my windshield keeps icing up really bad (on the inside !). I can actually use my ice scraper on it. I expect this on the outside of a car but, I have never had a car do this on the inside, did they forget to seal it correctly?
