Description of the problem	I would not recommend this vehicle, it is pretty expensive for all the problems we've had. It has already been recalled twice for two different problems. In december it started misfiring, hesitating and becoming sluggish. After taking it to three different repair facilities they figured out the pistons were misfiring and three ignition coils(all on the same side) had to be replaced. While i realize the time frame of the warranty has passed, we were under the mileage for warranty coverage. I guess automobile makers penalize you for not putting a lot of miles on your car. Now, just three months later with only a few more thousand miles added - out of the blue i'm driving down the road and numerous warning lights come on. Park assist goes off, all wheel drive goes off, abs warning light, and brake warning light all come on at the same time. When i called the dealer i was told to turn the car off and then back on and it should be fine - it wasn't. Then i was told it was ok to drive it! If so, then why all the warning lights? Too many things have gone wrong, for a price tag of over $50,000. 00. We have always had the suggested maintenance performed, i feel this vehicle is not made well and is not worth the price tag, but more importantly - how safe is it???
