Terrible car. I have replaced battery 6 times since I purchased a 2005 certified pre-owned in July 2008. One battery exploded. Serious electrical problems with this car - had to disconnect blue tooth, drivers seat controls or battery will drain overnight. I have also purchased 3 sets of new tires since 2008 - you will be lucky to get 20k miles out of a 50k tire. The door covers fall off all the time - very annoying. The dealership will not replace. The car is sitting in my driveway right now - won't start again.
