I have had my vehicle since 2010 and had concerns that I had sent to the attorney generals office less than a year after I purchased the vehicle and nothing was done. I've had the interior and exterior panel go out while driving and had to use easy care which I purchased when I purchased the vehicle. I've recently have been affected again with some very concerning issues that this vehicle have displayed and that the sunroof leaks through the interior lights and I'm scared that I may get electrocuted because my interior panel have malfunctioned which was fixed but they had no clue as to why this had happened.
