What owners wrote
A female ran a red light speeding at 55 MPH in a 30 MPH zone ripping off my entire bumper putting a dent on the top of my hood on the driver side and my airbag never came out! Before I seen on the news about the recalls, my airbag warning signals always come on and stay on for long periods of time before they go off and this had happen several times!
Over the last year I have notice reduced surge power when I hit the accelerator for when I need extra, short term speed (e.g., merging onto a highway). When I floor the gas pedal, I do not get any "assist" from my ima (hybrid motor), as viewed by the ima meter on my dash and felt in terms of actual increase in power/speed. This is exacerbated when the air conditioning is on. Further, I have noticed a reduction in fuel economy as well and think that this may be associated with the overall issue.
