One month after a purchased the car, it had to be taken back twice for passenger seat-determined it was not bolted correctly-at two years, motor had to be replaced-at 3 years the radiator had to be fixed and more metal was found in the oil filter-the alternator went at just over three years-brakes had to be replaced every year-cruise control works "randomly" since the beginning (reported to delaer; supposedly no errors were found), car hesitates and "spits & sputters" when idling, etc. Etc. One big lemon!
