Worried about potential repair costs? An extended warranty can provide peace of mind.
Chart based on 35 repair trips. The repair cost chart excludes repairs made under warranty, do-it-yourself repairs, and repair trips that include maintenance.
The plastic housing in both the driver and passenger windshield visors split, so neither visor would hold a fixed inclination very well. The driver visor was completely split so I was using tape to hold it together. The dealer replaced both visors. The round plastic shroud covering the driver airbag mounted on the steering wheel was starting to split right down the middle. The replacement airbag shroud which had been ordered on Trip 1 was quickly installed.
