What owners wrote
My daughter could not get the car to stop, as she was engaging the break to the floor. She is unsure if when she turned cruise control was set, but either way the brake should have turned it off. Then when the pole was hit, all the airbags went off except the passenger lower airbag. I was the passenger and I have a hurt ankle, knee, and hip. Why would all airbags go off except one if the impact was directly in the front of the car? The vehicle was turning when she noticed it would not slow down.
This is a rental and I have been driving this car for about 6. In the afternoon of day 6, I went to get into the car and the door handle made a funny clicking sound and would not open the door. It is attached but feels like someone is unhooked inside the door because it seems to lift up higher than it should. Door opens from the inside with no problem.
