    Electrical System · Equipment

    Infotainment system freezes causing battery to drain to zero when parked. Radio stops, navigation stops, phone stops working, backup camera stops working. Evidently a common problem because class action suit filed in march in california. Took to dealer, they changed battery, told me it was fixed. Froze again the next day. Vehicle was in motion when system failed. The next morning car would not start because battery…

    Equipment · Pressure Monitoring And Regulating Systems

    There seems to be an interference between using a bluetooth phone when paired with the vehicles hands free link system (hfl) and the tire pressure monitoring system (tpms). Vehicle was brand new off the truck (only 4 miles on it) and as soon as my iphone 4 was paired with the vehicles hfl system, the tpms failed. I've researched online forums and am seeing a growing list of owners reporting the same issue. *tr

    Equipment · Tailgate

    I have a 2007 ex with 13,000 miles and both of the tailgate (hatch) struts just failed suddently on 08/15/2010. There should be some additional safety mechanism on these so that they just don't collapse and cause harm (the hatch almost slam my 7-years old son on the head). Both can not go bad at one time and either one should support some weight. It is quite dangerous. These liftgate struts should be recalled before…
