What owners wrote

I was driving down the freeway when the back-end of the car became very loose and out of control. The car was swerving back and forth violently. I was able to gain control avoiding the cars to the left of me and the ditch to the right. I was able to get the car under control and I slowed the speed way down. I pulled off the highway and into a driveway to inspect.

Reported at 3,000 miles, October 2013

Car has numerous rattles and has had a recall for rear suspension bolts. Rattle problem has not been solved over 5 attempts. Both front strut assemblies have been replaced and still rattles. I have read there are issues with bolts coming loose and tie rods shearing from the vehicle causing the wheel(s) to come off. Have told the manufacturer on numerous occasions but they insist there is no safety issue with vehicle.
