| Description of the problem | First owner of vehicle. Issues began with engine light appearing/blinking & vehicle struggling to run within 15k miles. Dealership diagnosed as cylinder misfire & repaired. Has occurred multiple times over life of ownership- always diagnoses as misfires. At apx 75k miles, upon cranking & during operation, heater became inconsistent in operation & this is still an issue. At apx 80k miles, upon cranking & during operation, ticking noise from front passenger side began. Faint at first & became increasingly louder within several days. Out of warranty. Solid check engine light began to appear off/on, remaining on for 24-48hrs then off 24-48hrs. Air conditioner conditioner has about a 15 sec delay before it turns on at every crank & power light for a/c slowly blinks until after the delayed start. Mechanic found 2 rocker heads damaged & they were replaced. Light not on at repair & code could not be pulled. Within 2 days of repair, a faint ticking noise became present on drivers side. Has been a week & ticking is now extremely loud. I am one of many with parallel issues & request this be addressed as my year & vin do not fall in to the approved extended warranty to cover these very same issues. |
