Low oil pressure light and warning bell comes on stays on , everything has been check multiple times and the oil pressure is fine. Also passenger side doors will not unlock and the back hatch will not open from outside and I have to climb in the back with a flathead screwdriver to unlock it! Only got to actually use the back end twice when we got this car before it did this. I really hate this car but need this stuff fixed!

What owners say
Takaya recall and more ..airbags never deployed in accident. Key won't come out of ignition when heated up, door locks with remote failure, hatchback doesn't close properly, wiper blade on back goes on while not engaged or closing hatchback. Nhts called me for pictures and sent in never heard from them again.
Left side windows and locks will not open with key or remote periodically. Air bag light off when sitting and comes on when no one on pasngr side. Car was rear ended and front ended but ferrman stated they fixed properly. Door locks and windows worked fine before that and air bag has been a problem but stating I have to pay for all repairs. I feel that there are enough air bag recalls to add the 2008 to the list of 2007 ones. This vehicle is a limited edition. Only two yrs made. Parts are very expensive and hard to get now. These are manufactured defects since I had the window and door lock changed on the drivers door at cost of over $400.00. And still doenst work again. After driving a few blocks and stop my doors and windows open properly. I think they were jarred in the accident and fixed by ferman properly in fl. We were rear and front ended and we were stopped and the truck hit us at approx. 60 miles per hr.
Diver's door power windows, power door lock and door open/closed sensor not working due to broken wires in between car and door. Looks like wires are too short and have broken.
This vehicle is located in state that has extreme heat. As the temperatures began to increase this year, the door locks would not work remotely. They will work in the cool of the morning or the evening but when the sun and the heat beat down on the car the locks stop working.
