Engine complaints
Three bolts that hold the bracket on which the generator and power steering pump are mounted, sheared, causing complete power loss. Trip odometer window is poorly aligned, the left most digit cannot be read without straining to see it. Reflection of the top dash in the windshield is atrocious. Back driver's side panel with the storage compartment has a lock on the small door, but the whole panel can be easily removed and carried away. Rear window button on the remote control is too easy to trigger, this results in unwanted opening of the rear window. *Slc
