DURING YEARLY MAINTENANCE WORK, DEALER STATED ON MULTI-POINT INSPECTION THAT TIRES WERE INFLATED TO 36 P.S. I. WHEN I CHECKED TIRE PRESSURE WITH GAUGE, ALL 4 TIRES WERE AT 20 P.S.I. THERE WAS NO TPMS LIGHT ON THE DASH. THE OWNERS MANUAL LISTS IN BOLD LETTERS, TPMS. HOWEVER, IT IS REALLY INDIRECT TPMS. WHAT IS NOT MENTIONED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL, IS THAT IF ALL 4 TIRES ARE UNDERINFLATED THE SAME AMOUNT, THE TPMS LIGHT WILL NEVER ILLUMINATE, EVER. I THINK THIS FACT SHOULD BE MENTIONED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL. I THINK THAT MOST OWNERS, MYSELF INCLUDED, THINK THAT IF YOUR TIRES ARE UNDERINFLATED, THE TPMS LIGHT ON THE DASH WILL ILLUMINATE.

CAR LOSES POWER ON HIGHWAY EVEN WITH GAS PEDAL PRESSED DOWN TO FLOOR BOARD. SOURCE OF ISSUE IS UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME.

UNABLE TO DEFROST WINDOWS DUE TO ABNORMAL AMOUNT OF MOISTURE INSIDE THE VEHICLE.

THE FOLLOWING PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED TWICE, MOST RECENTLY TODAY. CAR DOES NOT TURN ON, AND EPC AND ENGINE LIGHT FLASH. THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED ON 9/917, I CALLED A TOW. WHEN THE TOW ARRIVED, THE CAR TURNED ON AND I DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHICH CHECKED IT OVER AND FOUND NO PROBLEMS. YESTERDAY, I WAS DRIVING THE CAR HOME AND MADE A STOP AT THE POST OFFICE. WHEN I RETURNED TO THE CAR, IT WOULD NOT TURN ON. I LEFT IT WHERE I HAD PARKED IT, RETURNED TO IT 3 HOURS LATER BUT IT STILL WOULD NOT TURN ON. AM HAVING IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY. THE PROBLEM I'VE DESCRIBED SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO TWO OR THREE REPORTED HERE.
