The front bumper fell off while driving without physical contact. The driver was able to pull over. The driver picked up the bumper and attachments and placed them inside of the vehicle and drove home. The driver has contacted the dealer for appointment.

Vehicle lost power while driving down highway. Replaced the battery and took to shop to have alternator and whatever else looked at. Mechanic could not find anything wrong. Battery light still flashing. I'm scared this will happen again and leave me stranded. Also have had same electrical problems (power windows) as everyone else, as well as spending $600 on brakes, and trunk latch won't work. Radio works off and on. Also had to replace bumper as it was ripped off while pulling out of parking space. (not negligenc).

The front bumper is so low it drags out of driveways, shopping center parking blocks and so on. Because of this, the whole fender has torn off on both sides of car. The full fender and lower section where fog lights would go is torn off too. Incident date was last time, this problem happens everytime the car is driven.
