What owners wrote

August 24, 2015 I was driving to a 7:00 pm exercise class .I was talking to my mother via bluetooth when I suddenly blacked out and drove across the service road and all 4 lanes both north and south of 287 . I wake to emergency responders pulling me from the car and putting me into a ambulance , my mother could hear all of this. I was taken to hospital and had multiple tests run but nothing was found . After I was discharged I had several more tests run and again nothing was found.

Stabalizer bar makes rattling noise. Vehicle only has 40,000 miles and have had dealership look at it. Stated they repaired it but front end still rattles. And repairs on this issue no longer covered under warranty. Makes noises as you travel down the highway.
