Latest Ion lighting complaints
This vehicle has an electrical issue from time to time seemingly out of nowhere. There is no power steering it just shuts off sometimes it'll stay off for an hour sometimes it'll stay off for weeks and I can't figure out how to fix it. It randomly fixes itself same can be said for the air conditioning And the driver side, headlight all of these electrical functions, seemingly turn themselves up or down for no apparent reason.

My turn signal went out but my parking light stays on. I saw on a site that there was a recall for this problem. I need my right turn signal fixed! I have changed bulbs & it still doesn't work, but the parking still does work! Why is this! Just bought this car off of a person not long ago & it was working til yesterday!
Daytime running light turn signal dont work for the passenger side which can cause a safety problem to other drivers
Driver lights will not work switched bulb and checked fuses
Took my vehicle for inspection it passed safety and failed emissions ! There is no engine check light on
The drl and tail lights flicker at high speed when car is running!
Strong gas smell & started noticing poor gas mileage and it got worse. Then notice it is leaking gas by the rear driver side tire. Also the running lights automatically come on during the day but not at night.
The front drivers side exterior turn signal light stop functioning about 2 months or so after the bulb was replaced, now it doesn't work at all. The panel inside the car had shown me that same turn signal light had been malfunctioning for some time blinking extremely fast back to normal until it finally needed to be replaced. I can't get my safety check done because the turn signal lamp is inoperative. I wonder if a drl jumper kit needs to be added, can you please direct me? The car was in motion making a left turn on the highway.
