WHILE DRIVING IN LIGHT RAIN, I EXPERIENCED A TOTAL FAILURE OF MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, INCLUDING HEADLIGHTS, DOOR LOCKS, INTERIOR LIGHTS, RADIO, TRUNK RELEASE, ETC. AT THAT POINT, ALL WARNING INDICATORS LIT UP ON DASH. I PULLED OVER, PUT THE CAR IN "PARK" ONLY TO DISCOVER THAT, WHILE THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES CONTINUED, I COULDN'T GET THE CAR OUT OF "PARK". AFTER ~ 10 MINUTES THE ELECTRIC SYSTEMS CAME BACK ONLINE, BUT THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT REMAINED ON. AFTER TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS A WATER LEAK. THERE ARE NUMEROUS POSTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ONLINE, BUT THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED TO HAVE NEVER HEARD OF IT BEFORE AND REFUSED TO FIX IT FREE OF CHARGE, DESPITE THE FACT THAT IT'S A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. THIS COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS PROBLEM IF THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, WHEN LOSS OF HEADLIGHTS COULD HAVE CATASTROPHIC CONSEQUENCES. *TR

VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER SYSTEM
THE VENTS ON THE FRONT DASH HAVE SPLIT IN TWO. ONCE I TURNED THE AIR ON PLASTIC PEICES STATED FLYING OUT. THIS COULD HAVE EASILY HIT SOMEONE IN THE FACE OR EYE CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY.
