This vehicle can not sustain wind less than 15 Miles per hr on a windy day. I was close to being in a very serious highway accident 3 times. Small wind forces will make you loose control in the car. The seats has caused severe back and hip plain because of all the friction from that you feel from highway when driving the vehicle. I had to buy all kinds of padding to sit on to drive vehicle.

Is 5 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2024 and 2025, roughly 5 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
