This vehicle has many problems starting with the seat belt in the rear of the vehicle is malfunctioning, brake lights are on all the time, water pump went out in 2012, the transmission shifter sticks in park, the car has shut down on the street while driving and the service traction control message appears, the two rear passenger automatic door locks do not function properly, the trunk button is inoperable. I am fed up with all of the electronic issues and have tried to have them resolved at the dealership paid to have them fixed and it has returned. The roof of the car is showing rust and the steering column was clunking which was fixed underwarranty.

My problems started with the catalytic converter which failed and the dealer told me it was not covered under warranty which I later found out it was up to 100,000 miles. Next my airbag service light keeps coming on and now my traction control comes on and my engine powers down and I slow down at a rapid rate. Yesterday I was going down the interstate at 65 mph and the traction control light came on and the car completely lost all power almost causing me to crash and get hit by a tractor trailer and now it will not start.

Intermittent stalling of the car while driving. At first the stalling took place once every few weeks and only as the speed was decreasing. The car was taken to the dealership, who said there was nothing wrong with the car. The dealership stated there was no codes in the computer to explain the stalling and was unable to replicate it. Over the last 9 months the stalling has increased. The car stalls every few days, and at times stalls while accelerating. After the car stalls, it immediately starts right back up.
