385-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD
| 26000 mi | Headlights started flickering when putting on the right turn signal. I caught it on video but the dealer couldn't replicate. Tightened down ground bolt to headlights recommended by dealer. Happened one more time, but not for a while. |
| 26500 mi | Headlight flickering issue still happening. Dealer found a TSB this time and replaced the multifuntion switch. The problem has been fixed. SCC warning light came on while driving. Dealer checked connections and found good connections. Replaced cruise control module. |

| 42000 mi | Reverse camera not working. Camera replaced. |
| 49100 mi | The actuator in the drivers side front door started failing somewhere around 49,000 miles, something that I would not have expected. In addition, the control knob on the center council fails intermittently . . . it simply will not respond to attempts to clear the warning displayed on the system screen, when you initially start the vehicle, which renders the entire system useless . . . just one more unexpected surprise. |
