While driving with the headlights on and turning to the right, the consumer can not dim the lights when another vehicle is approaching unless the wheel is turned back to starting position, the dimmer also hits the steering wheel. Nlm

When driving & switching from high beams to low beams or vice versa, headlights would shut off. Holding switch too long would cause entire light system to go out. Took to dealer & was told everything was working fine.

Braking problems: brakes were wearing prematurely and ruining rotors vehicle had abnormal vibrations while applying the brake...found that the calipers/bushings were too long shaved off 1/4 inch and it cured the problem ...they were dragging constantly as a result...have had no problems since this was done. Lighting: have experienced problems while night driving...when putting on the high beams I have lost all lighting inside and out...once u switch back problem is cured this has happened several times and it is shocking when u can't see...does not happen every time... Alternator: had to be replaced after car was in my possession for one year...also battery as a result...engine coolant: experienced my low coolant light coming on in the mornings approximately 3 minutes after starting vehicle...check coolant resevoir and it is empty...placed coolant in and again this morning same thing ...replaced coolant...drove to dealership and it was determined that coolant is leaking into the engine somewhere and oil level was 2 quarts above normal which meant that coolant was in the oil...awaiting diagnosis possible a intake gasket, head gasket, or cracked block ....summary: in a nut shell I have had alot of problems with a vehicle I paid good money for some of which could be major safety issues....I have 70,281 miles on this car and I keep up on all maintenance....very upset and awaiting a better prognosis for the future!

I have noticed since the car was new,that while turning ,unable to switch headlights from low beams to high beams.I feel this can be somewhat dangerous, especially when getting off an interstate exit ramp.

There is a short in the steering column area which causes the low beams not to work, driver has to use the high beams when driving. Dealer has been contacted.

High beam failed to turn on 10/11, increased pressure/effort to lift turn signal lever up and down. Turn signals, low beams and cruise control still functional until 10/13 when turn signal level broke off in my hand while flipping lever down to make a left turn. Lever broke about 1.5" from point where base of lever inserts into wheel column. No problems were experienced previously with the lever, high/low beams or cruise control.

While driving with headlights on & going around curvy road, cannot switch from hi-beam to low beam. This causes poor visibility to other drivers at that time. Will be taking vehicle to dealer.

Design of high beam switch cannot be turned off when vehicle is manuvering a right turn/curve because a part of steering wheel blocks it from being turned off causing poor visibility to oncoming traffic. Nlm
