Engine light continues to come on repeatedly. Resetting does not fix the problem. Engine shuts off while driving. Then suddenly the engine comes back on at an accelerated speed. Engine shuts off at traffic light when my foot is on the brake. When I remove my foot from the brake and press the accelerator the car jerks into gear. Sometimes the STABIL TRACK appears on my dash board. Also, STEERING REDUCE BE CAREFUL appears on my dash board. Sometime the driver side window will not go up or down. I have CAR SHIELD but I can not find a mechanic to accept it. They all say that CAR SHIELD is a rip-off.

The horizontal seat adjustment motor has a shaft that broke. The vehicle was stationary at the time.

When adjusting the drivers seat forward after getting into the vehicle, and driving, the seat turns toward the middle console. When I got out of the vehicle to see why this was happening, I immediately adjusted the seat to the rear position. The seat is now locked in the farthest back position and will not move forward. This results in a the inability to move the seat forward and causes a safety issue when attempting to drive. The seat has somehow dislodged itself from the track. I took it to the dealership who stated this happens sometimes and that it would cost around $900 dollars to fix.

We had a down pour 05/20/2018 in kissimmee, Florida. My vehicle had stand still water in my trunk, the water seeped through to the interior damaging the rear seats, water covered the floor, there are stains on the roof and the smell of aged water is throughout the entire vehicle. My vehicle was parked and unoccupied, the trunk was closed and the windows were up as normal as my vehicle was parked for the night.
