CarComplaints.com Notes: Power steering problems are a major issue with the 2004 Mini Cooper, with hundreds of owners reporting complaints to the NHTSA about their power steering suddenly failing while driving.
Some power steering failures have caused crashes & injuries. Average mileage at failure is well under 100,000 miles & the repair cost is over $1,000. Not good.
Several times now, especially on colder mornings, the automatic climate control won't come on. No response how matter how many times I push the buttons on the console, nothing. Then about 10-15 minutes into the drive, it just mysteriously comes on, and I finally get some heat for my frozen body.
