Default Oh Crap! I have the water Leak/Electrical issue!

Jesus, these cars are crap...I don't even know where to begin.

I have had every conceivable part of this car fixed, changed, redone you name it.

Next month it goes to the body shop for the Lawsuit I just won for paint defects...this is absolutely ridiculous.

Now this, third time at the dealer this weak........low and behold I have the water leak slash electrical issues!!!!!!!


To anyone out there, was there a resolution to this issue....did they fix the car or was it a continuing issue?????

Thats what I thought, you don't think you have this issue but it is wide spread.....
I had all these strange electric issues, air bag light would sometimes come on, fuel gauge would relfect 0, then I had problems with half of the back right tail light staying on...same with the the front right fog light, then I smelled a slight musty smell after a heavy rain...I mean heavy. Go to wash it and sure enough I felt a little moisture on the right kick panel....

They are relpacing my whole carpet and "tons" of parts...taking over a week to fix.

I have 20k miles and live in dry Texas.

I dont have any of those water issues, but I had a question, your mods say you have factory 18's bullets and steeda ultralites?? You have both on your car? Good luck with your car.

The only way I can describe them is "just right" not to low and not to high...a perfect blend of style and function.
I think the actual num was 1.25 inch or 1.5 check steeda.com

I wouldn't buy anything else if I could do it again.

The water leak is a simple fix. It's either the clips that the wiper cowl sits on or it's the electrical grommet on the firewall. In my case it was the clips and I fixed it myself.

Your passenger airbag light will go on and off if someone is sitting in the passenger seat that is very light or if they aren't sitting square in the seat. It's designed to disable the airbag if it thinks a little person is sitting there.
