I have been the owner of this vehicle for three years . I purchased this vehicle from a dealership in richmond at that time it had 34k miles. I am not a person that drive fast or ride my brakes, so I find it very disturbing that something as major as the ABS braking system should have to be replaced this soon. The problem I incurred was that the ABS light would not go out even after following the instructions in the manuel. I then took it to be checked out as the book stated. Ihad to have the ABS value assemble replaced and I feel that this should be invistigated. The cost of the part alone was $578.95 this is a major part and I think they might should have had a recall on said part.

The ABS brake warning light comes on and the bell rings nonstop. Occasionally if you make a hard turn the light goes off for a few minutes. Took to mechanic. Did front brake "job". 2 days later the light came back on. The automatic door locks do not work in the front doors. The passagner side does not lock or unlock. The drivers side locks but will not unlock. But the car will lock the doors when you put it in gear or turn off the engine - locking you in the car. This too was taken to a mechanic and after 400$ the owner decided that was enough money to spend and not have the problem corrected.
