What owners wrote

1. The overhead lighting will not turn off. This causes significant and detrimental driving conditions as it impairs driving at night. This is just like a passenger holding a flashlight at the drivers eye at night. This is clearly unsafe and affects peripheral vision. 2. The wipers do not oscillate fast enough. I am not referring to the quality of the wipers but the speed at which they move.

Reported at 1,000 miles, November 2015

Left brake caliper stuck wearing out brake pad completely. Headlights so dim they don't light roadway. Windshield unusual hazy appearance causing unclear front view. All problems during any condition on road.

Reported at 39,000 miles, March 2016
