Excessive oil consumption causing piston rings and pistons to go bad or warning light never appear on dish so that's not working either. I have to get all change every week to every two weeks.
Airbag indicator continues to go on and off with no one sitting on the passenger front side. With a person seated on the passenger front side it indicates airbag off in motion especially and even while parked. . . . Feels like the tires are about to fall off when driving or turning especially on three front tires and even worse when going over bumbs speed bumbs or holes while driving.
A constant "percolating" or rattling sound is heard while driving slowly and especially on uneven surfaces. The noise gets worse and more consistent as the car is driven. Since nobody can tell me what it is, I must assume it could be a safety concern. The noise became worse after a strut was replaced at 100 miles. The noise got louder after an attempt to fix it by installing a new coil (f-spring?). I was told that this is a characteristic of the car so they will not make attempts to repair it when I request specific actions. I have heard similar noises in at least 7 other same model cars. Three separate people have driven the car and confirm the noises. If there is a structural weakness it would be a safety concern.
