NHTSA — Suspension Problems

CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2009 is starting to have the same problems as previous model years, including the headlights blowing out due to bad connectors.

The wiring harness connections aren't a big deal to replace, as long as your dealer or mechanic doesn't charge you an arm & a leg to "diagnose" the problem.

My eps keeps malfunctioning and I lose the ability to steer my car. I've done research on the recalls but, can not solve my problems. This is my only vehicle and I feels it's too dangerous to drive.
