What owners wrote

I was driving home from work on a monday night, I had my phone in the front seat with me and I had heard it go off a few moments earlier. I looked over quickly at the phone to see who it was,I quickly looked back at the road, I was not able to stop quick enough and I hit the young lady in from of me. I was going about 40 MPH when I hit her and there is substantial damage to my car. What really puzzled me was that my airbag did not deploy, even with an impact as big as this one.

While driving on normal condition road at the speed between 30 MPH to 40 MPH, rattle noises can be heard from joint between windshield screen and dashboard. And rattle noise from both doors.it happens after accerlarating then release the gas pedal, while cruising. Driving on freeway, at 65MPH to 70MPH, suspicious noise from under the car, feel a bit lose control sometimes. Brought to the dealship and they removed the cluster and panels, put on form tape. But noise still exist after repair.
