What owners say
My vehicle impacted another vehicle from the rear and air bags did not deploy. The air bag light has been on. Several electrical problems; steering wheel buttons stopped working in 2008, ABS light remains on, backup sensor went out 11-17 and most recently I started my vehicle one morning and speakers started popping really loud and immediately smelled of burned wires and just two days later vehicle would not start, battery was completely drained. After charging worked fine for a couple of days but just repeated the same situation. This vehicle has gave me so many electrical problems starting a year after purchase. Also noticed that one of the a frames welded joints is cracked. I am a certified welding inspector and can say that it is a manufacturer discontinuity. The catalytic converters went out years after purchase in 2006. I have had to replace the engine because of the catalytic converters. I am the one and only owner and purchased it new with only 17 miles on it. This vehicle has had so many electrical/mechanical issues that im starting to think I should apply under lemon law but I dont know how to do that.
