Consumer Description

INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE SINCE REACHING 17,669 MILES. I HAD IT REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY THE FIRST TIME AND HAVE PAID FOR IT TO BE REPLACED AFTER THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY RAN OUT. THE SHAFT CONTINUES TO MAKE CRACKING NOISES WHEN TURNING THE VEHICLE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PART DEFECT SINCE A LOT OF PEOPLE ONLINE HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE HAD THE SHAFT REPLACED THREE TIMES AND IT LAST ABOUT A YEAR BEFORE IT STARTS TO MAKE A CRACKING NOISE. THE POWER WINDOW REGULATOR IS A DEFECT IN THIS VEHICLE BUT IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED. I HAVE HAD THE REGULATOR REPLACED FOR ALL FOUR WINDOWS AND NOW I AM STARTING TO HAVE TO REPLACE THE REGULATORS AGAIN FOR ALL FOUR WINDOWS. THE REGULATOR REPLACEMENT IS EXPENSIVE ($400+ FOR EACH WINDOW). *TR
