Seats are very uncomfortable for long rides

Doesn't have starting power. Acts weird. Important pop ups during driving which doesn't stay up enough to read. It disppears. My car is 4 month old. Shouldn't be poping up warnings.

Everything is great except…

The cruise control safety feature dings at me constantly when I’m looking at the road with two hands on the wheel. Great car otherwise.

Great little truck. Love the AWD especially here in the NE United States in the winter. It’s a smooth ride almost like a car.

It’s just what I wanted

I’ve wanted one since they came out, after saving a little more I was able to get on of my choice. I’m so glad I have one. I love it as much now as the day I received it. Thank you to everyone who made it possible for me to get one.

Engine lights come on for no apparent reason

I have had the ABS light and ECS lights come on when it rains and just randomly. I have had it checked but was told everything is fine.

Amazing technology

I have had the truck two and a half months and it has been just great. You sit up high and it is not much larger than my Mazda3. Great Sage Gray color. Have only seen four others so far.
