AIR BAGS, SEATS
THE PASSENGER SIDE ACTIVE HEADREST RESTRAINT (AHR) DEPLOYED DESPITE THE CAR BEING PARKED AND UNOCCUPIED. THE HEADREST WAS POORLY MANUFACTURED AS A PLASTIC PIECE INSIDE THE HEADREST CRACKED AND THEREFORE JOLTED FORWARD THE HEADREST ON IT'S OWN. THE CAR WAS OTHERWISE IN GOOD CONDITION BUT THE FAULTY HEADREST PRESENTS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AS IT COULD DEPLOY WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD OR COULD HAVE CAUSED NECK/HEAD TRAUMA IF A PASSENGER HAD BEEN IN THE CAR.

ENGINE, STEERING, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE DRIVING, USUALLY DECELERATING OR GETTING READY TO STOP OR ALREADY STOPPED AND GETTING READY TO ACCELERATE THE ENGINE WILL STALL OR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF, WILL BE COMPLETELY HOT, WILL TAKE ABOUT 15-20 MINUTES AND THEN WILL START AGAIN. THIS HAS CAUSED MY SON SAFETY ISSUES WHERE HE'S COMPLETELY STOPPED RUNNING ON A BUSY ROAD AND THEN HAD TO PUSH THE CAR INTO EITHER A PARKING LOT WITHOUT POWER STEERING (HARD TO DO BY HIMSELF AT 18 YO) OR INTO A DRIVEWAY. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED IN THE COUNTRY AT NIGHT. NO LIGHTS COME ON EXCEPT ONCE WHEN THE ABS AND TRACTION LIGHTS CAME ON. THE VEHICLE WILL VIBRATE SLIGHTLY BEFORE EACH EPISODE. THE LAST EPISODE WE HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED. HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 6 TIMES. NOW NO LONGER DRIVING DUE TO SAFETY!!

JUST PURCHASED THE CAR AND LESS THAN 24 HOURS AFTER BUYING, THE CAR SITS DEAD. NOTICED THERE WAS NO COOLANT IN THE OVERFLOW SO I ADDED COOLANT AND ONCE I GOT INTO MY VEHICLE IT HAD THE BATTERY LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I DROVE IT ABOUT 2 MILES AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON, THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON BEFORE MY VEHICLE COMPLETELY DIED AND HAS NOT MOVED SINCE! I JUMPED IT BUT IT STALLED OUT BEFORE I COULD EVEN GET THE HOOD CLOSED AND DRIVE ANYWHERE. I REPLACED THE BATTERY BUT THE ISSUE HERE IS THE ALTERNATOR! WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN RECALLED YET??
