The interior smells strongly of crayons and will not go away with shampooing, cleaning and/or other methods of odor removal. The odor is very strong and rubs off on clothing and skin whilst seated.

The car has been to the service department for the driver side tail light bulb to be replaced twice. Bulb replacement only fixes the problem for 2 to 3 days. There is some type of short and I keep getting hit with a service charge every time the vehicle goes in for this. Also the driver side seat is showing some beyond normal wear and tear for a vehicle with only 25K. The leather seating surface is tearing at the seams and appears to be of very thin materials in the bolster area.

During a rear impact, my son states his seat lumbar section tilted towards the back seating area and the passenger seat (empty) tilted forward, towards the windsheild. My son litterally had to use the steering will to help pull himself back up forward.
