Issue 1. Vehicle appears to have a broken lock mechanism or bad sensor on the automated rear drivers door. When shut and in drive, driving down the road at 55 mph, door has flown open twice. I have 2 children that sit in these seats and I will not place them in the vehicle again until this safety issue is resolved. Issue 2 - front windshield rear view mirror has intermittently went in and out of night mode during daytime driving. This is a safety issue and cars are barely visible with the green tinted nighttime mode on. Additionally, rain makes this condition worse.
Side view mirrors will go down in backup position while driving resulting in a loss of vision on cars beside and behind you. Tried replacing with aftermarket mirrors and the same happens. This is third time this vehicle has had the same problem. Issue occurs anytime vehicle is started. You can set the mirrors, turn off the settings adjuster and at a random time they will go all the way down.
While I drive a car. It was very humidity condition. So I turn on ac to windows. Few minutes later then suddenly ac stop. The windshield are clouded up with steam. So I can't see any through the windshield. So I stop and need to wait till its gone. So I visit my mechanic after day. He said ac pipe located behind steering hose is abraded by steering hose. So ac gas leaked at once. It shouldn't happen. It is very dangerous situation. .
