The whole component on driver's side which controls windows and mirrors quit, right rear brake light keeps going out within the same day the bulb is replaced, radio quit, heater works but air works when it wants too. All of these things happened at the same time.
ABS Light and Brake Light came on as AC shut off one evening. It was on for about 20-30 seconds, then disappeared and my AC worked. The actual performance of the car did not change (brakes and accelerator worked fine). I did a little online research and saw this problem occurs often and the windows don't work. The next time I was driving, the same thing happened and my windows wouldn't work. Again, it was only 20-30 seconds at a time. Took it into the shop and they reset the board which connects all the warning lights. About a week later in 103 degree heat in the middle of the day, it happened again, but this time for about 5 minutes. Then it went off again as usual. After I parked the car a while and got back in, the AC and windows would not work and the ABS/Brake lights were off. It took a while for the AC and windows to start working. It did this twice today.
I don't know what to do. After reading several solutions (checking out ABS system, replacing ignition, etc) and seeing how many of them don't hold up, I guess I'm just going to install a cooler with lots of ice just in case.
This car has been great for the 3 years I've owned it (from 50K miles) but considering all the issues which began around 95K, I am seriously thinking about buying a different car.
