When I take off the gas is sticky and takes alot to get it going, when turning from stop my rear end vibrates like it's going to fall off. Aready had the transmission replaced by the dealer ship I got the car from. Driver side window clunks when rolling down, motor makes a knocking noise when cold. I just don't expect this kind of problems when you pay alot of money for a nice car.

Vehicle drifts to the right, aligned repeatedly and re-checked, continues to drift, created outside wear on drive tires. Rear wiper failed during rain storm. Power mirror works intermittenly. Power windows do not operate when key is out making it dangerous to exit in an emergency. Windshield wiper worked sporadically, replaced multi-function switch as per recall. Driver's power seat 'clunks' with medium to hard stop or acceleration, making it difficult to steer.
