The Body problem

My rear passenger door latch is corroded. It is difficult to open, it sometimes fails to open. I have children under the age of 3 in the backseats of my car. I do not want the latch to fail and the door to open while in motion. It is available for inspection upon service.   Read details...

The Door problem

The wiring between the hatch door and the body is deteriorated with a broken wire for the license plate light and the insulation cracked and missing on many of the other wires.

There is water leaking from my car into the engine. It is seeping under the cowl. This is causing water to get into my air filter and causing problems with my maf system. This problem occurs when it rains or when I wash my vehicle. I just purchased the vehicle on Nov. 9 2009.   Read details...
