Steering-loud clicking noise from steering column at all speeds. Noticeably load on turns (left or right). Battery-first battery died. Only 8-9 monty old. Green 'idiot' dot on so called 'maintenance-free' battery no longer green. Replaced battery at dealership. Current battery is also weak! green 'idot' dot is fading away. Notice that power door locks churn away trying to lock or unlock doors. Won't be long before dealer will replace this second battery!. brakes-vehicle vibrates bad upon applying moderate brake pressure. Occurs every time, vehicle doesn't swerve. Dearler says, brake rotors may be warped?. of course, this isn't under warranty, I beleive this to be a defect. I have noticed several complaints about the brakes and steering column defects on this site. It's not just me. These are defects!!
