What owners wrote
Seat headrest bubbling and having oozing stuff. Looks like many other people have the same issue. Yesterday I went and they said they have never seen it before and then I find in many online forums people are complaining about this. And for some people they gave a free replacement. Charged me $330 for this. Even the replacements are starting to show same issue [link removed]
Driving on rural dirt road. Dust coming in from rear seat bottom, trunk, seat belt holes. So much dust it is unbearable, can't breathe and hard to keep eyes open while driving.
