THE CAR ALARM WILL GO OFF SPORADICALLY, NOT HONKING CONSISTENTLY. IT HAS GONE OFF WHILE DRIVING THE CAR AS WELL! THE KEY FOB WON'T TURN IT OFF SO I WOULD GO PULL OUT THE HORN FUSES UNDER THE HOOD. THE ALARM WILL STILL GO OFF WITHOUT THE HORN FUSES. IT IS OBVIOUS BECAUSE THE LIGHTS WILL FLICKER, AS IF THE ALARM IS GOING OFF, AND A CLICKING NOISE OF THE ALARM BEING ACTIVATED IS HEARD. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND IT IS ANNOYING HAVING TO DRIVE AROUND WITHOUT MY HORN WORKING! WHEN THE ALARM GOES OFF, WE ARE NOT ACCIDENTALLY PRESSING THE KEY FOB BUTTONS. AGAIN, WHEN THE HORN HONKS DURING ALARM ACTIVATION, IT IS A SPORADIC HONKING LIKES THE CAR IS POSSESSED, RATHER THAN A CONSISTENT HONK. PLEASE HELP! *TR

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN 2010. I HAVE NOW HAD 5 TIMES WHERE THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. I WILL BE RUNNING ERRANDS AND THEN GET IN THE VEHICLE TO START IT AND ALL IT DOES IS CLICK. I'VE TRIED TO JUMP IT BUT IT WILL NOT WORK. IF YOU WAIT 3-4 HOURS IT MOST LIKELY WILL START. DURING SEVERAL OF THESE TIMES, I'VE HAD MY KIDS WITH ME. THE CAR NEEDED TO BE TOWED AND BY THE TIME THE SERVICE MEN WILL START IT, IT STARTS RIGHT UP. THEY DID SWITCH OUT MY KEYS A FEW TIMES, BUT IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN THIS WEEKEND. I WAS STRANDED IN A DIFFERENT CITY WITH NO RIDE. THE DEALERSHIP / SERVICE REPAIR MAN HAS NO IDEA WHAT THE CAUSE IS. YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN THIS IS GONG TO HAPPEN. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT RELIABLE AND IT IS UNSAFE. IF YOU LOOK ONLINE AND SEARCH THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE YOU WILL FIND 100'S OF COMPLAINTS. *TR
