What owners wrote
There was an electrical short behind the radio and underneath the dashboard which caused smoke and fire. Manufacturer was contacted by consumer. Vehicle was totaled.
The entire car is defective, though it does not state it is a lemon. I purchased it used. I have replaced many major parts that are not considered routine maintenance, such a driver's door hinges and bearings, hood release cable, steering arm (twice) hubs (twice) the wiring system is faulty. I have gone through 4 alternators in under 2 1/2 years.
