| Description of the problem | At approximately 78k miles, vehicle would occasionally start and the only system that was operational was the radio. I cleaned and inspected all connectors that i could access, and problem appeared to go away. Then just after the warranty expired (80k miles) intermittent electrical issues have begun to appear. The transmission sometimes "sticks" in 3rd gear, the windshield wipers fail to function and when i attempt to turn them on it crashes the powertrain control module which then begins running random system errors, and the headlights sometimes turn off or fail to come on. |
