What owners wrote

Design of the electrical system is flawed, when installing new battery the vehicle stalls without notice, the computer unit needs to be reset after installation, instruction manual does not mention resetting of computer.

While driving at highway speed the car suddenly lost all power, including power steering, power brakes and all instrument panel information. When the car was finally stopped, the doors could not be unlocked because they are automatically locked when the car is put into drive and there are no door lock knobs available to manually unlock the car from the inside. Also, no windows could be operated because there was no electrical power available to operate them.
