Original recall 09 v4 89000 was supposed to have fixed visibility issue. car was taken in at the time of the original recall. the vehicle is showing symptoms of the exact same issue as before where defroster is no longer working because of controls not functioning. radio is also out along with possible other unknown electrical issues. we've turn the car on and off several times hoping it was just a glitch, however it appears the problems of the first recall are back again. driving the vehicle pose a threat has we live in weather we're having to have control over the defrosting is needed. defroster and panel do not work because of lack of electrical control. my worry is that this is systemic, the the issue is reoccurring, every so years or so, that other issues will continually make this an issue in the future.
