Consumer has problems with the window leaking/door locks freezing and the rear view mirrow falling off. The dealer replaced the mirror, and it's known that the in 98 models rear view mirrors are mounted to the roof console. As a result of 97 defects, door locks freeze in the open position when consumer gets in the car and closes the door in below 25 degree temperature. The door will not be closed due to freezing of the locks. The windows leaks after washing vehicle or if it rains. The water stays inside the car if the temperature drops below freezing, causing the windows and locks to freeze. Dealers have not remedied this problem. This has hyappened 3 times Monday January 12, 98. The first time and the vehicle is still at the dealership.
