its super noisy on start up, rattles really bad, and when i come to a stop it always seems like it wants to stall on me. ticking noise comes from the engine (possibly the timing belt)
are there any recalls for this?

Soooo....... finally reached 100,000 miles on my Nox. Took it to my favorite mom and pop shop for an oil change since I am no longer in fear of voiding an expensive warranty by not taking it to the dealership.
And discovered water in the oil. Awesomeness... great. I hate this car. I hate the dealership. My mechanic said this has been going on for quite some time. Obviously, this is the first I have heard of it.
Proceeded with the oil change, with a plan to watch and see if the coolant is leaking - leading to head gasket, or intake gasket replacement. After 2 months, there is not a change in the coolant level.... my car sounds like a bag full of soda cans being dragged behind a car, and it's still using oil. At least a quart every 1,500-2,000 miles.
This car is a comfy ride, but is not built to last. I fell in love the 2009 model after a 12 hour road trip with a friend.. Unfortunately, the new models do not have the mechanical integrity that will make it last. My last two Dodge/Chrysler vehicles lasted to 200,000 miles.... and never had any major repairs other than wheel bearings, and hoses.
I was going to fix it, as I trust my mechanic... but we both agree that the using oil is something that isn't worth my money. Going to trade it so I can be done with it.
