The car had damage because in the carfax they gave me on the left side of the car the shock absorbers fail and I always had that problem also The moldings the first time I cleaned it also fell apart at the time to revere and turn to the right when it is going back it has such an annoying noise
"I WAS PULLING INTO THE PARKING LOT, WHEN THE CAR STARTED TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN! I PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE MAX AND IT KEPT ON GOING, OVER CEMENT STOPPERS, GRASS, AND FINALLY A TREE STOP IT FROM CONTINUING! AND I AM NOT A ZENIOR CITIZEN YET!"
CRASH MITIGATION SYSTEM WOULD STATE MALFUNCTION OF SYSTEM GOING DOWN THE INTERSTATE AND NOT WORK AND CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT WORK WHEN I USED THE BRAKES.WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD AND TURN THE KEY OFF TO GET IT TO RESET. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. DEALER SAID THEY COULD FIND NO PROBLEM. INTERMEDIATE SUPPORT BEARING FOR RIGHT HAND AXLE HAS FAILED TWICE WITH IN 15 K MILES
