The contact states has been having several problems with vehicle since 2002. On April 28, 2004 the speedometer was not providing an accurate speed reading. On December 9, 2004 the sliding door would not unlock or slide properly. The dealer replaced the door lock actuator and determined that the slide wheels were dry. The dealership replaced the door latch, and now it needed replacement again. On February 5, 2005 the engine was replaced at 75, 172 miles, and on November 21, 2005 the power steering failed and was replaced. All repairs have been done at contact's expense.
