I said that we just came from an hour drive on a turnpike, and it was completely dead, with no warning or slow cranking. He told me that is the nature of the "new batteries".

| Sep 201352000 mi | Rear shock absorber failure. One was replaced under warranty. I noticed another failure by the same reaction of poor tracking on bumpy curves and replaced both with lower cost Monroe shock absorbers. I thought Monroe's might be better than OEM but I am disappointed. No real improvement. Fuel door latch needed adjustment as it did not always open. | ||
