What owners wrote
On june 8 2013 both the driver and passenger seat power adjustments ceased to operate or respond in any way. Both seat stuck in a full back position. The next day, june 9 2013, the vehicle was at idle and in park for no more than 4 or 5 minutes, when an odd smell was noticed. A small electrical fire to include sparks and a lot of smoke then erupted under the passenger seat. The driver turned the vehicle off, and the passenger and 18 month old child, and driver all exited the vehicle.
Speedometer gage in instrument cluster stops/sticks randomly. I need to start/stop the ignition to decrease the MPH reading in 5MPH decrements. Faulty stepper motor.
