| Description of the problem | I bought the car at 50k miles and started having issues. Seal for windshield popping out,airbag light on passenger side stays on constantly transmission jerking,and doors auto locking in park position. Ball joints no good and had to pay put of pocket. Refused to cover warranty because i didn't buy the car new. Have to call locksmith to get keys out,cause i refuse to brake windows,that also are misaligned on drivers sd causing it to not close fully. Shame they can't warranty their car yet only convenient cover only buyer... Smh refused |
