Comments
Favorite feature:	safty features
Least favorite feature:	maintenance and breaking
Advice to buyer:	Be prepaired for high maintenance costs
Detailed review:	Never owned a higher maintenance vehicle. Approximately $2,500 per year not including oil changes tires and brakes. Manufacturer and dealers never clear on what was causing any one problem ie: broken steering column, idle adjustment failure, water leaks in back seat, window falling out, multiple oil seal failures, headlight replacement about every 20,000 miles, eating oil for no apparent reason, idiot light coming on for no apparent reason and I could go on. P.S - We own a company and service 10+ vehicles a month.
