RIGHT HEADLIGHT FOGGING AND CONDENSATION WITHIN SEALED BEAM IN FOG, RAIN AND SNOW CONDITIONS.

MY SRX HAS WHINING NOISE IN THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE FRONT WHEEL WHEN DRIVING. *TR

THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT HAS A LOT OF CONDENSATION IN IT AND RESTRICTS THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT BEING PUT OUT. THE DRIVER SIDE ALSO HAS MOISTURE BUT NOT AS MUCH AS THE PASSENGER. THE PASSENGER TAIL LIGHT DOES NOT WORK WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON. NO ACCIDENTS THAT I AM AWARE OF.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE USELESS. THEY ONLY LIGHT UP ONE CAR LENGTH. I SEE OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ALSO. WE HAVE THE "LUXURY" MODEL WITH THE HALOGEN LIGHTS. I SEE THIS AS A SAFETY FACTOR. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT, I JUST DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS CAR AT NIGHT DUE THE POOR LIGHTING. *TR

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE TIRE AND VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,814. THE DOT NUMBER WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE HATCHBACK LIFTGATE OPENED BY ITSELF. THEN IT WOULD NOT OPEN AT ALL WHICH DOESN'T ALLOW ANY ACCESS TO THE REAR CARGO AREA WHERE FLAT TIRE REPAIR GEAR IS LOCATED. I THEN DETERMINED THAT THE EXPENSIVE ELECTRICAL LIFTGATE MECHANISM BECAME SUBMERGED IN WATER FROM SUNROOF DRAIN TUBES THAT FAIL TO DRAIN RAIN TO THE GROUND. A FURTHER LOOK REVEALED THAT THE FRONT SEAT AND REAR SEAT FLOOR MATS WERE SATURATED WHERE ELECTRICAL CABLES ARE ROUTED.
