What owners wrote
Braking lights began to malfunction, then the cruise control did so too. There were no consequenes due to this malfunctions, untill the car caught on fire. The front driver side tire begain to catch on fire and so did only the front left side of the car.
Headlight assembly covers on this model only, fogs over (internally) and lens can not be cleaned. Dealer informs me the only way to correct discrepancy is to replace entire piece at a rate of about $500.00.
