About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The headlights on this car are dangerously dim. Like the turn signals overpower them levels of dim. I-??ve replaced the bulbs, the battery, cleaned all the connections, replaced the alternator, nothing makes a difference.
Intermittently, the doors will not unlock when inside the vehicle, effectively trapping the occupants inside. Additionally, the locks will fail to lock or lock with either the key or the remote fob. trapping occupants inside or prohibiting someone on the outside from getting in to retrieve children inside.
While driving the car (approximately 35 miles per hour) there is a sudden loss of power, including loss of power steering. Car would not restart. We replaced alternator and had battery checked, which was working fine when the same problem occurred while driving on highway at 45 mph. Problem is recurring. Car is unsafe to drive.
In this case I left my lights on causing the battery to run down. The problem with this car is when there is no power it is impossible to open the rear sliding doors or tailgate. Only the driver's door opens with a key and you cannot open the rear doors from the inside without power. In the event of an accident that disables the power system these doors cannot be opened and passengers (especially children who are in safety seats) can be trapped. There are 3 rows of 2 bucket seats per row. I feel this car is a death trap and would seriously recommend it not be purchased.
Fire in engine compartment, driver's side near front located at the fan controller unit. Electrical high-resistance connection due to improper length of wire in harness causing loose connection in controller unit.
