THE LEFT REAR DOOR LOCK DOES NOT UNLOCK WITH THE OTHER DOORS; IT COMES UP HALFWAY BUT DOES NOT ALLOW OUTSIDE ENTRY. IT IS NECESSARY TO PULL UP THE INSIDE DOOR LOCK ALL THE WAY TO ALLOW ACESS FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE CENTRAL LOCKING SYSTEM (ACTIVATED BY THE DRIVER'S DOOR) ACTIVATES BOTH RIGHT SIDE DOORS BUT NOT THE LEFT REAR DOOR. ALSO, THE ENGINE CANNOT BE STARTED ON THE FIRST TRY. THE STARTER ENGAGES BUT THE ENGINE DOES NOT FIRE. ON THE SECOND TRY, HOWEVER, THE ENGINE WILL START. ALL MY OTHER VEHICLES START WITH "ONE CLICK"; REQUIRING ONLY MINIMAL CRANKING. THE ENGINE, A 3.2 LITER V-6, MAKES A CLICKING SOUND WHEN RUNNING; ALMOST LIKE A SUBDUED DIESEL ENGINE. *AK
VEHICLE EXPERIENCES EXCESSIVE SIDE TO SIDE MOTION AND FRONT-END SHIMMY, NO INSTALLATION OF A STEERING STABILIZER OR MOUNTING BRACKET ATTACHED TO THE BODY OR CHASSIS OF THE VEHICLE.
