TOTAL POWER SHUTDOWN WHILE TRYING TO START. STARTED 10 MINUTES LATER. VARIOUS COMPONENTS STARTED FAILING - DOOR LOCKS, INTERMITTANT WIPER, REAR WIPER, REAR WASHER, POWER MIRROR. TOOK TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD I NEEDED A NEW BCM. REPLACED BCM FOR $600 AND WAS TOLD THAT EVERYTHING HAD TO BE REPAIRED! THEY REPLACE DEFECTIVE BCM 50-60 TIMES A YEAR SO THAT THEY CAN TELL YOU YOUR CAR IS NOT WORKING! WHAT A RACKET! AND APPARENTLY THE ONE THEY REPLACED HAD ALREADY BEEN REPLACED BEFORE - HOW MANY TIMES I DON'T KNOW. $220 OF RECOMMENDED REPAIRS WERE NOT GUARANTEED TO FIX THE PROBLEMS EITHER! I REPORTED THE DETAILS TO "CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE" AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL BACK - THEY DIDN'T. WHEN I CALLED THEM THEY SAID THAT ALL ASSISTANCE WAS DENIED! I HAD TO PAY $600 SO THEY COULD TELL ME WHAT I HAD ALREADY TOLD THEM! I'LL TAKE IT TO AN INDEPENDENT SHOP WHERE THEY CHARGE TO FIX THE CAR.*AK
