Consumer Description

VEHICLE'S BACK WINDOW LEAK NOTED WITHIN 60 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE, RESEALED BY DEALER X2-STILL LEAKS. WITHIN A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR AFTER PURCHASE, THREE OF THE FOUR WINDOW GEAR BOXES WERE REPLACED DUE TO FAILURE. I'VE NOTED SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE ISSUES, MET OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD THESE ISSUES FIXED UNDER WARRANTY, YET WE WERE REQUIRED TO PAY FOR REPAIR. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, 65MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHIMMY, VIBRATE AND BECOMES DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF STEERING. VIBRATION MAKES RIDE UNPLEASANT AND NOISY. *TR
