We have had a problem with the windows not working. We've had to push up the window with our hands while pushing the power window button and it doesn't close all the way. Now it does not work at all. Also we have problems with the headlights staying on. We noticed if we play with the multifunction switch (like turning the high beams on and off) then the headlights will come back on after a few tries. We recently replaced all 4 brakes and now the ABS light is on and stays on. Dealer stated that there's nothing wrong with the ABS brakes.

I have had a lot of trouble with squeaky steering column, now in addition recently, my headlights will go out and most likely is a contact within the operations stick on the steering wheel.I have problems with clunking noises on front left and all mechanics tell me my shocks are fine.my heater core has taken a dump, along with a battery, along with a fuel pump, all of which seem very premature all from 40000 miles to 55000 miles.
