What owners wrote
Driving on the freeway car started losing power, pulled over and then caught fire in matter of minutes the whole car was engulfed in flames. Fire department said it was an electrical fire near the battery and the fire wall on the driver side.
The engine light constantly comes on. Have had the solenoid valve timing control replaces twice and engine light back on for the same problem. I have had my car for 6 months and has been in the shop frequently.
