Transmission went on main highway, rims fell pulled away from tireson both front ends causing flat tires on several occasions nad replacement of them. Almost crashed several times due to this. Drive door does not close properly all the time, it is not aligned correctly. Brakes had to be fixed several times and now ball bearings are warn and need to be replaced. Battery frequently gets corroded. All these problems within the past 3 years.
