Exhaust manifold cracked in 2 places causing life threatening co conditions inside idling car. Seems to be a common complaint on the vehicles with 2.4 liter ecotec engine. Roughly a $1000 expense to fix with a new manifold. Not warrantied or recalled item. It should be a recall issue.

Began hearing noise from the sunroof two months ago. Shortly after that, we took the car through a car wash and it leaked all around the frame and by the seatbelts. Upon checking, there was a space where it was not closing completely. We followed the directions to calibrate the sunroof and it still doesn't work.

I looked away from my driving for perhaps 2 seconds, when my car drifted to the edge of the road-- it was raining and the grass was very slick and pulled me on into the ditch. While trying to get out of my slide, i hit a road sign with my front bumper. Immediately, i was told "airbag deployed"... However, it did not deploy. I could smell something, like electrical burning, but the airbags stayed inside their…
