The contact stated that all the interior door handles except the front passenger side door handle were fractured. The contact stated that the sun roof would leak whenever it rained.

The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 80,000.
The sunroof/moonroof does not set appropriately when closed and causes water leak and subsequent water damages. This also leads to the drainage lines to clog up and causes water to backup into sensitive electrical components within the roof. My maplight and homelink buttons along with the sunroof engine and buttons have all failed to operate as a result of water damages. Please request a recall on this as there is a database of consumers with similar complaints.
