THE TRANSMISSION HAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THAT TWO DEALERS HAVE TRIED TO FIX, THEN TELL ME THAT THE CONDITION IS NORMAL. THE BRAKE ROTORS HAVE WARPED, IT TOOK THREE TRIPS TO THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WARRANTY WAS CHARGED TWICE ON BRAKE REPAIR WHEN ONLY ONE REPAIR WAS DONE. DEFROSTER FUNCTION ON CAR WAS INOPERATIVE DUE TO WATER COLLECTING IN AC UNIT. AC HAS MOLDY SMELL THAT HAS NOT YET BEEN CORRECTED. VERY DISSATISFIED WITH DEALERSHIPS THAT TRY TO REPAIR CAR. *AK
