Right back passenger door wouldn't close properly 3 days after purchase; took it in for adjustment. 2 years later, during which my baby was sitting next to that door, the latch failed and the door was inoperable. latch was supposedly fixed. fuel/oxygen injector failure 3 times; waiting on a part. taken in for squealing brakes 3 times; was told the brake pads were on recall. 2 years later, i'm still waiting on the brake pads. anti-lock brake trouble twice, stability control system failure twice, sensor malfunctions on a regular basis, check engine light on a regular basis; each time it is taken to mechanic. i've been told to ignore the problems if the warning goes off the next time i start the car, and to only bring it in if the warnings go on and off a few times. a few times the mechanic has said they can't find anything wrong with it, but the warning lights keep coming back on. *tr
