| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: It started a year and a half ago. the windshield wipers would come on for no reason. it didn't happen very often at the time i took it in to evaluate the problem. the dealer told me they could not fix a problem they didn't see. slowly the problem got worst, especially in wet weather. about eight months ago, the headlights would go out if the steering column was lowered. i can no longer raise or lower the column anymore for fear the wipers, locks and headlamps will not work. at times, the locks to the back seat would not respond to the power lock buttons. the rear wiper does not work anymore, you can hear the motor run at times, but no movement. the odometer blinks on and off at times. there have been times it doesn't come on at all. that normally happens when i'm on the road for a long period of time. with all of that going on, the worst thing is to drive the car in the rain and snow and not know if the wipers will work at all. *jb |
