TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT FROM 3RD TO 4TH GEAR. SUPPOSELY DEALERSHIP DROVE IT OVER 25 MILES NEVER HAD THE PROBLEM. I PICK IT UP AND DROVE IT LESS THEN 5 MILES AND IT DOES NOT SHIFT.
WHILE DRIVING THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS FLICKERED THEN WENT OUT, MY CONVERTIBLE TOP HAS A MALFUNCTION AND WILL NOT OPEN AND THE DOOR LOCKS UNLOCK AND LOCK ON THEIR OWN.
MY CAR SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY AS I WAS DRIVING, THE STEERING WASN'T WORKING, I COULDN'T TURN THE WHEELS AT ALL. THE BREAKS WOULD NOT WORK EITHER, NO MATTER HOW HARD I PRESSED ON THE BREAKS THE PEDAL WOULD NOT MOVE. LUCKILY I WASN'T GOING FAST OR DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY CAUSE THAT WOULD HAVE KILLED ME.
I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND THE HORN BEGAN CHIRPING RANDOMLY OVER THE COURSE OF ABOUT 30 MINUTES. AFTER 30 MINUTES OF RANDOM "CHIRPS" THE HORN ENGAGED AND DID NOT STOP. THIS WAS WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. THE HORN STILL BLEW. I OPENED UP THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND TAPPED THE FUSE BOX/RELAYS AND THE HORN STOPPED. I'VE READ ONLINE THAT MULTIPLE OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND I WOULD LIKE THE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE. THIS POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY RISK FOR MYSELF AND THOSE AROUND ME. ALSO, THE HORN NO LONGER WORKS FROM THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN DEPRESSED.
