Consumer Description

IT STARTED OUT AS FLASHING INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND WIPERS RUNNING AND ENGINE WOULDN'T START. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND NOTHING WAS FOUND WRONG. MADE TWO MORE TRIPS FOR THE SAME THING UNTIL THEY SAID ANTS HAD GOTTEN INTO IT AND CHEWED ON THE WIRING INSTALLATION. THE HARNESS WAS REPLACED BUT NO EVIDENCE OF IT BEING REPLACED (ORIGINAL FACTORY TORQUE MARKINGS STILL VISIBLE). LESS THAN A YEAR LATER THE ELECTRICAL IS STILL NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE CRUISE CONTROL BUTTON IS INTERMITTENT AT BEST. THIS MORNING THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START AGAIN AND THIS TIME IT HAD TO BE TOWED IN. STILL WAITING ON RESULTS.
