I HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH MY WINDOWS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE PASSENGER WINDOW WOULD GO HALF WAY UP THEN GO BACK DOWN, BACK WINDOWS WOULDN'T WORK AT ALL. THEY HAD TO CHARGE THE BATTERY BECAUSE IT WAS LOW AND WOULD GO INTO BATTERY SAVING MODE AT RED LIGHTS. THEY REPLACED THE CAR RADIO BECAUSE IT WOULD CHANGE CHANNELS FOR NO REASON. THEY SAY IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THE ALTERNATOR BUT DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO FIX IT. I HAVE CALLED THE RECALL ASSISTANCE LINE TWICE AND HAVE GOTTEN NO RESPONSE. THIS CAR COULD BE DANGEROUS TO ME AND OTHERS AND NOBODY IS TAKING IT VERY SERIOUSLY. I HAVE MY CHILDREN IN THIS CAR AND MY GRANDCHILDREN IN THIS CAR. PLEASE HELP. *TR

THE A/C AND DEFROSTER BECAME INOPERABLE. A CHECK OF THE FUSE BOX PANEL UNDERNEATH THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE REVEALED THAT THE FUSE THAT DIRECTLY CONTROLS OR IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PERFORMANCE/OPERATION OF THE A/C AND DEFROSTER WAS MELTED RESULTING IN A HOLE BEING BURNT THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF THE BOX. THE FUSE WAS THE ORIGINAL FUSE FOR THE VEHICLE. IT APPEARS THAT THE ENTIRE FUSE BOX NEEDS REPLACING AS A RESULT OF THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE BURNED FUSE. ADDITIONALLY, THE HEAD LIGHTS OF THE VEHICLE LOOK AS IF THEY ARE SHATTERED INTERNALLY. IT APPEARS THAT THE BULBS, WHICH ARE ALSO ORIGINAL/FACTORY GET TOO HOT AND CAUSE THE PLASTIC FIXTURES TO APPEAR CRACKED OR SHATTERED. *TR
