Vehicle rolled over and air bags did not deploy and ignition system was not woring took into dealership multiple times for ignition problems they replaced the ignition switch little less then a.year ago
The door will not unlock with key fob or work inside when buttons pressed. Fuse blew tried to replace it when new fuse just melts and give off electrical sparks. Can secure vehicle or open lift gate because it only opens with key fob.
