What owners wrote
While our vehicle was making a slow turn, another vehicle traveling at approx. 50 MPH, crashed into the passenger side, then our car was flipped and landed on the roof. None of the airbags deployed. All passengers were wearing seat belts. When the car flipped, the rear passenger seat belt released and became unsecured, tossing the passenger. Significant damage to the cabin cage and side door panels. ....updated 04/23/15
The sub frame that's holding the engine is rusting apart almost missing a huge part of it which is a cause for concern for the safety of me and my children. Especially being that I was never informed of this issue upon purchasing this as a "certified vehicle". Only had it for one year.
