1. front heater and defroster only blows cold air. Front windshield fogs up considerably. Heater system blows warm air in back vents but cold air only in front vents. 2. gas gauge stops working at about < tank. After reaching that level, the gauge pegs to past the full level and does not work again until the tank is filled again.

When headlights are turned on at night tail lights do not function. In daytime when headlights are not in use, tail lights will function. This is due to rain getting in tail lights and causing a wiring shortage. Consumer states when lights are on, the light at the top of the hutch work, but the tail lights, brake lights, flashers and reverse lights don't work, the radio flashes and the left and right flash light on the dashboard stay on, consumer took vehicle into repair shop and it was determined that the entire harness system was burned out and needed replacement, consumer also stated fuel guage not reading correctly, also ABS light and brake light coming on at times.
