Windshield Sealing Failure

The bonding agent or seal around the windshield degrades over time, leading to water ingress. This is the most frequent complaint, impacting visibility and potentially causing interior damage and electrical issues. Estimated repair cost: $300 - $800.

Airbag System Issues (SRS)

While a recall addressed the SRS control unit, some complaints persist, potentially linked to water intrusion into the A-pillars. This can lead to airbag warning lights or system malfunctions. Estimated repair cost: $300 - $1000+.

Visibility/Wiper System

Beyond leaks, issues can include malfunctioning wiper motors or blades. This is a frequent complaint category, directly impacting driver safety. Estimated repair cost: $100 - $300.
