When in a car accident the correct airbags deployed, came out of car conscious with a few scratches, seatbelt left a mark but other than that the car has been super reliable for the time I had it for. Handling on the car was great and good first car!

There was a vibration when idling from the start. We took it to the dealer and they kept it off and on for about 5 weeks. They couldn't seem to find the source of the vibration. They replaced a couple of computers; then the transmission,then a module,etc. The vibration is better but still not as quiet as a new car should be. We get about 18/19 mpg. No seat belt light issue at all.The dealership has gone above and beyond to please us,but they now say this is not uncommon in the 2008 model. Why didn't they say that when we first complained? We are disappointed that our first new car in years has/had this problem that's not really fixed. We may trade it before something else happens.

The ride is rock solid, fun to drive and plenty of power, seems too tight and tough, enjoying it a lot looking froward to taking a nice long trip .

It rides smoothly and is easy to navigate in and out of traffic. My grown kids really like to drive it. I have had a lot of compliments even a couple who mistook it for a Lexus or Cadillac.
Love it !!!
