1)steering-when trying to go straight car will tilt to the left, have to keep wheel at weird angle to maintain a straight line. 2)accelerator sticks accelerator seems stiff and sticky and causes car to lurch when starting from a stop -was making left turn through intersection on a city street February 4th and accelerator stuck until it was pumped, increasing my speed. Was terrifying. 3)rust ridden roters and break anti-rust covers not working at all 4)visibility-windshield's seal seems defective-VIN number not visible due to condensation building in lower corner, windshield fogs up profusely and stays that way even with defroster making it difficult to see out of front windshield 5)heater-blows cooled air (not room temp) instead of warm when turned on, seems like computer error in thermostate/temperature gage 6)side windows shake/studder when rolled up or down.
