Consumer Description
1. STATIONARY OR IN MOTION: THE TOP OF THE FRONT WINDSHIELD SEEMS TO BE LOSING ITS SEAL BECAUSE WHEN WATER IS POURED OR WHEN IT RAINS, IT ENTERS THE CAR AND FALLS ONTO THE DASHBOARD. ALSO, THE PLASTIC BOX THAT STORES THE REAR VIEW WINDOW AND WHICH IS ATTACHED TO THE WINDSHIELD GETS FILLED WITH RAIN AND DRIPS DOWN THE WINDOW. 2. IN MOTION, ON A GRADUAL HILL AND UP: FROM DAY ONE, THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT UP ON A DOWNHILL, EVEN A SLIGHT HILL. IT REVS IN THE 2ND GEAR AND REV UNTIL IT WOULD JUMP INTO THIRD AFTER REVVING IN A LOWER GEAR FOR 2-4 MINUTES. I TOOK IT TO 2 DEALERSHIPS (ONE IN TACOMA, WA, AND THE OTHER IN MARINA FORD) AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T REPEAT THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH I HAD PLENTY OF VIDEO OF IT. 3. STATIONARY OR IN MOTION: LCD SCREEN SOMETIMES STOPS RESPONDING FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON. YOU HAVE TO TURN CAR OFF AND ON AGAIN TO GET A RESPONSE. *TR
