What owners wrote
While driving on highway travelling 15MPH in a heavy snow storm, driver's side windshield wipers just stopped working. Had brakes and rotors replaced 4 times. Dealer said that brakes were defective. Also, interior light blew out, but dealer replaced it with a dimmer light.
The high beams are not aimed correctly. When you turn the high beams on they shine to the left into the oncoming lane of traffic. When you are driving and have them on the right half of the lane you are in the dark because the aim of the high beams are off. It is very hard to see if anything or anyone is on the right side of the road, and it makes it almost impossible to see the lane when you go around a right corner or curve.
