“This problem has happened multiple times over the last few years. The windows, air conditioning and radio just stop working. Safety issue - hot day and can't roll windows down or turn the air on! Dealership wouldn't fix it because everything turned back on when we got to dealer, and then again stopped working again later. Very sporadic. Currently not working again.”

“Air conditioner turns on by itself. None of the buttons work on the steering wheel unless you hit the steering wheel. Sometimes when you turn on the car all the lights stay on and there is traction issues. If you turn the car back off and then back on it goes away.”

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 0 of 27 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.

File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation.
