Water is coming in the trunk somehow seeping inside the spare tire area and leaking into the back of the car soaking the back floor boards. / strong gas smell in my car when operating - so bad that the windows have to cracked for fresh air - cannot find any leaks- my grandchildren are being transported in my car daily- was told that this does not sound like a defect and I will be responsible for any cost - problem since around November 2004 / brakes squeal everytime I brake -had new rotors and brake pads installed December 2003 - noise is so loud sometimes it is embarrassing.
