FIRST PROBLEM HAPPENED RECALL ON SPARK PLUG BOOT 1 CYLINDER WASN'T FIRING, WAS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY AS WAS THE GASKET FOR THE HATCHBACK WAS BAD. THAT LEAD TO A GALLON OR SO OF WATER INTO MY SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT. THIS HAS SINCE HAPPENED AGAIN AND I NEED ANOTHER GASKET. THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW STOPPED WORKING, BEING A ELECTRICIAN I FOUND TO BROKEN WIRES INSIDE RUBBER BOOT ON DOOR HINGE SIDE. ABS LIGHT CONSTANTLY COMES ON/OFF COMPUTER SAYS ABS NEEDS SERVICE ( SENSOR PROBLEM). GAS GAUGE IS READING INCORRECTLY, I HAVE TO USE THE RANGE SETTING ON THE COMPUTER. SPEEDOMETER READINGS INCORRECT SITS AT 60MPH WHEN THE CAR IS OFF. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW AND HAVE NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS, MOST OF ANY VEHICLE I'VE OWNED. CURRENT MILEAGE 63,000 MILES. *TR

WHEN I PARK MY CAR I CANNOT GET THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. I HAVE TO PUSH THE BRAKE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND MOVE THE GEAR SHIFT SEVERAL TIMES BACK AND FOURTH BEFORE I CAN GET THE KEY OUT. IT HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY DAY, EVERY TIME I PARK THE CAR. IT IS GETTING WORSE DAY BY DAY AND I AM AFRAID THAT ONE DAY I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET THE KEY OUT AT ALL. I AM UNEMPLOYED AT THE PRESENT AND CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE ANYONE LOOK AT IT. I FEEL THAT IT IS A DEFECT FROM THE FACTORY, BECAUSE THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY REPORTS FOR THE SAME THING. I THINK SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *JS

GETTING BACK ONTO THE INTERSTATE THE DOOR LOCKS STARTED CLICKING AND THE SPEEDOMETER HAND STARTS GOING HAYWIRE. IN THE WEEKS AND MONTHS TO COME NOW THE AWD, TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHTS COME ON. THE STEERING WHEEL JERKS, WEIRD NOISE GOES THROUGH THE SPEAKERS AND ALL GAUGES AND DOOR LOCKS GO HAYWIRE. HAS BEEN PUT ON A MACHINE BUT NO CODES COME UP FOR THE MECHANIC. *TR
