What owners wrote

Dt*: the contact stated the third brake lamp which is located behind the rear seat blocks his view. At night you cannot see the headlights of other cars that are close. The contact feels the lamp should be relocated in the trunk deck or above the rear window. Updated 2/13/2006 - the consumer had one minor accident. He backed into a post that was only about 3-4' high. The post could not be seen because of the vehicle's high back design and the high mount brake light blocking his view.

Reported at 2,000 miles, November 2005

I was driving home from work, when both of my front turn signals went out. My dash indicated to check lf turn lamp and check rf turn lamp. I stopped at the store to purchase new bulbs, thinking the bulbs were bad. I got home, and noticed that the left front parking lamp was on. I shut the car off, and the light remained on. I had to disconnect the light, otherwise it would have drained my battery. I had no front working turn signals and no working hazards in the front.
