ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
THE VALVE COVER GASKET IS LEAKING OIL ON TO THE ALTERNATOR. THE ALTERNATOR IS COVERED IN OIL, POSSIBLY CAUSING IT TO SHORT OUT WHICH COULD LEAD TO A LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE REPLACED 4 ALTERNATORS DUE TO OIL DRIPPING DOWN ON IT. I HAVE HAD MECHANICS TRY AND FIX THE OIL LEAK BUT HAVE NOT SUCCEEDED. ALSO WHENEVER THERE IS A HEAVY RAIN OR WHENEVER YOU GO THROUGH A LARGE PUDDLE OF WATER EVERYTHING WANTS TO SHUT DOWN IT IS DANGEROUS DRIVING IN THE RAIN BECAUSE SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO TRY AND GET OUT OF TRAFFIC DUE TO EVERYTHING SHUTTING DOWN.

MANUFACTURED FROM DECEMBER 26, 2006, THROUGH JULY 24, 2012. THE AFFECTED VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE AN OIL LEAK FROM THE FRONT CYLINDER BANK VALVE COVER GASKET. IF THERE IS A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF OIL DROPPED ONTO THE ALTERNATOR, THE ALTERNATOR WILL BE DAMAGED CAUSING THE CHARGING SYSTEM TO BECOME INOPERATIVE. MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND SHUTOFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHEN TRAVELING AT SPEEDS OF 25 TO 35 MILES AN HOUR THROUGH RESIDENTIAL AREAS THE VEHICLE SPUTTERS AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IN MARLTON, NJ BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD GONE OFF AND THEY STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT DO DIAGNOSTIC TEST IF THE ENGINE LIGHT IS NOT ON (THAT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME). THIS HAPPENED AT 112,000 MILES AND IT IS STILL HAPPENING NOW AT 140,000 MILES WITH NO RESOLVE. I'VE HAD THE SPARK PLUGS CHANGED, THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHANGED AND HAD THE MECHANIC RIDE WITH ME IN THE VEHICLE TO WITNESS THE ISSUE. WHEN THE VEHICLE SPUTTERED WITH THE MECHANIC IN THE CAR THEY STILL COULD NOT EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT IS THE CAUSE. I ASKED IF THEY COULD CHECK THE FUEL PUMP, BUT YET AGAIN THEY STATED THAT WITHOUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO RUN A TEST AS THEY NEED TO KNOW THE CODE THAT IS REGISTERING FOR THE ERROR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
CAR WONT START, TOOK IT IN TO THE SHOP FOUND OUT OIL WAS LEAKING ON TO THE ALTERNATOR AND THAT THE VALE GASKET IT LEAKING OIL. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER 4 YEARS AGO TO GET IT FIX FOR THE RECALL. HAD THE CAR FOR 5 YEARS AND HAVE CHANGED 5 ALTERNATORS, AND 5 BATTERIES, NOW THAT I HAVE PUT A NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR AGAIN, THE CAR WONT START NOW WITHOUT GETTING IT JUMPED OFF. WE HAVE TRIED DISCONNECTIOING THE TERMINAL WHEN NOT DRIVING BUT THAT ONLY WORKS SOMETIMES. CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND THAT THE CAR WAS OKAY EVEN WHEN IT WOULDN'T START IN THERE SHOP AND THEY HAD TO JUMP IT OFF AND EVEN PITTING A NEW STARTER ON.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
TAKATA RECALL - WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADE WENT OUT BECAUSE IT APPEARS THAT THE NUT THAT FASTENS THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT SECURE ENOUGH CAUSING THE BLADE TO BE TOTALLY INOPERABLE. EVEN WHEN THE NUT IS REFASTENED OR REPLACED, IT WILL LOOSEN DURING AN EXPECTED RAIN SEASON THAT REQUIRES MUCH USE. IT IS LIKELY THE STANDARD NUT FOR THIS DEVICE COULD BE REPLACED BY A LOCK NUT.
