The car dies, unknown, mechanics don't know! It's in the wires somewhere, the backup camera doesn't work, the radio doesn't work! Even with the the fuse in and everything working the backup camera still doesn't work, and as soon as you shut the car off it doesn't start up again! Nothing was replaced it's still everything from the factory so you tell me what's wrong!!
Door actuators are not working so the locks only work on two of the five doors. Safety and security of the passengers is at risk.
Every morning the car has to have a jump! We bought a battery! That didn't help! We took it to the shop, they couldn't figure it out but said it was something to do with the electrical but didn't know what, so we started digging on our own and you have to take the fuse out to the radio for the car to start! So after spending ALL that money that's what it is, we can't listen to music to start our every morning but now it is getting worse, something else is draining the battery! And no one knows what!
SEE OID 10434752. SAME ISSUE. HAD PROBLEMS GETTING VEHICLE INTO PARK. THAT ISSUE APPEARS RESOLVED. HOWEVER, ONE DAY THE STEREO WAS STAYING ON FOR A FEW SECONDS AFTER THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF. TWO DAYS LATER, THERE WAS NO AUDIO FROM THE STEREO, GPS OR BLUETOOTH. THEY ALL APPEAR TO BE WORKING (RADIO CHANGES STATIONS/VOLUME, GPS OPERATES NORMALLY AND I CAN MAKE CALLS USING BLUETOOTH), THERE IS JUST NO AUDIO OUTPUT. WHEN I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, THEY DID NOT DO ANY DIAGNOSTICS ASIDE FROM TURNING ON THE STEREO BEFORE TELLING ME THE STEREO NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY, FACTORY OR EXTENDED. THERE HAVE BEEN SOME OTHER UNUSUAL ELECTRICAL ISSUES LIKE THE TURN SIGNAL REMAINING ON AFTER THE LEVER WENT BACK TO THE OFF POSITION AND THERE BEING A DELAY OR COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS. *TR
