I opened the lift gate with the fob and went to put my groceries in the back and hydraulic lift gate started closing on me almost immediately. I had to physically force the hatch up! If it had been my wife it could have pinned her in and trapped her. This is a major issue it could kill a child! I know it is an older car but they should have built in a force safety switch to disable the hydraulics.

The sunroof drain tubes become plugged and if you can actually find someone to fix the error, its horribly expensive. Water enters the vehicle, causing mold on the back seat floors. This issue has also shorted out my trunk release consistent with other individuals reports and when manually released, via the inside hidden panel, it sparks, which is dangerous and shouldnt happen. After a heavy rain, entering the vehicle sounds like a waterfall all around you from inside. I have to constantly keep moisture absorbers inside of my vehicle in a futile attempt to solve the issue.

I was parked in my driveway and opened the door and found about 3 inches of water on both the drivers and passenger side. I felt the side panels, under dash, top of dash, headliner, windows and all were dry. The seats and the middle column compartment felt damp. I looked online and found there were complaints of the drain tubes leaking. As the week went on I noticed the car was starting to get mold. It got so bad I couldn't drive the car because it was making me ill with breathing issues. I took it to the dealership and told him it was leaking and that I researched a bit and found that they had issues with the tubes and he said they would need to keep it overnight and would check it and let me know. He calls the next day and says it looks like its coming from the roof they would need to take off the headliner and perform a leak check to verify if that was the cause. He gave me another estimate that was to include the verifying and leak test and replacing the seatbelts and front rug for $6000 and suggests I start an insurance claim.I tell him to not take the headliner off and I would check into the insurance . When I pick it up he hands me an estimate that ends up almost $8000.00! They had my car overnight and did nothing and charged me $300 for labor! I try to turn it in to insurance and they reject it because he tells them he didn't actually verify the leak even though he charged me. So I am stuck with! Thats a big safety issue! My car is actually killing me sitting in it. I could never replace the vehicle at the price I originally paid nor can I sell it or hope to get any value from it to get another car. It has only 71,000 miles on it. A $45000 car that is basically worthless now!
