Consumer Description

I BOUGHT THIS TRAVERSE USED WITH ONLY 7,000 MILES. AFTER ABOUT A YEAR, THE RADIO AND SCREEN WOULD NOT TURN OFF AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF AND OPENING THE DOOR. IT WOULD REMAIN ON EVEN AFTER TURNING THE IGNITION ON AND OFF OR OPENING THE DRIVERS DOOR SEVERAL TIMES. THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW DOES NOT GO DOWN USING THE DRIVER SIDE CONTROLS, DESPITE MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO FIX IT. I HAVE LEARNED TO LIVE WITH THE ISSUES WHEN RECENTLY ADDITION PROBLEMS HAVE APPEARED. FOR SOME REASON IT FEELS LIKE I AM DRIVING WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED OR PULLING A HEAVY TRAILER. MOST OF THE TIME I HAVE TO PRESS HARDER ON THE GAS JUST TO MAKE THE VEHICLE GO. AS A RESULT, THE GAS MILEAGE HAS DROPPED SIGNIFICANTLY. ALSO, SUDDENLY THE AIR CONDITIONER FOR THE DRIVER BLOWS ONLY WARM AIR WHILE ALL THE OTHER VENTS BLOW COLD. THERE IS A CONSTANT CLICKING SOUND BEHIND THE DASH AND I AM ABOUT TO REPLACE A SECOND ACTUATOR. FINALLY, THERE IS A LOUD NOISE FROM THE ENGINE LIKE IT IS STILL RUNNING AFTER IT IS TURNED OFF AND THE KEY IS OUT OF THE IGNITION. I HAVE TO TURN THE IGNITION ON AND OFF AGAIN FOR IT TO STOP. EVEN THEN, THE ENGINE FAN REMAINS ON, WHICH IT NEVER DID BEFORE. ALL THESE STARTED JUST AS IT WAS ABOUT TO HIT 80,000 MILES.
