What owners wrote
The two front airbags did not deploy. We was hit into a cement divider on freeway while going 65to 70 MPH. Flipped rolled 5to6 times on all sides of car landed on the top and the front airbags did not deploy. Causing injury to driver and passenger
Seams underneath the vehicle were not properly sealed at the factory, which resulted in half inch to an inch of standing water on the front and back floor boards on the passenger side of the vehicle. The car now smells like a musty moldy basement. As of today's date 8/25/17 the dealership has attempted to fix our car twice, but we anticipate needing to go back for a third time.
