The fobik when inserted does not turn vehicle on (acts like vehicle battery is dead) but when key is removed and reinstalled it will then crank. then other times it cranks but is like it's in off position (inside lights nor radio comes on) also, after acting up the airbag light stays on without flashing or going off. windshield wipers "motor" doesn't function properly (works but stops in from of drivers window area) until it's put on high speed. these issues occur before and after vehicle is started. both areas of city street and highway.
Front driver side wind shield wiper failed to work in torrential rain fall, as the single nut connecting the wiper arm and the wper motor assembly.
Vehicle turn signal randomly indicates the wrong direction. has happened multiple times in vehicle. it appears to affect the right turn signal more than the left. occasionally it will flash the wrong turn signal once, then it flashes the correct one. however there has been instances where it flashed the wrong direction the entire time the lever was in position. during a visit to dealer for a recall on another part, the service manager informed me that there are new module updates available. however he would not inform me what they fixed, and they would end up costing me $90/ service flash. this should not be legal for the dealers to charge for a safety related update. provided that the update is for that issue
