October 30, 2024
By Philsyes from Willowbrook, IL
Owns this car

I bought this used with 26,000 miles in the spring of 2024. I love the styling, interior, and value. My only complaint is that the angle of the infotainment display can make it difficult to see due to reflections, especially in bright sunlight. I love the AWD option, it adds to stability - even in dry conditions. The remote start is handy in cold weather since I now live in an apartment and no longer have a garage. Performance with the optional engine is more than adequate.

Owns this car

This has been a horrible experience. Alicia‘s car my check engine light was on seven months later, and nobody could explain to me why I was on. I took it to several dealerships and I would’ve had to order a part. They finally called the recall and I got my part now I’m having problems with my brakes, my system blanked out on me like it was a video game while I was driving I would not recommend this car .
