This vehicle has done pretty well for my family and I. We've had it for some time. We've started to have to put some more money into it and we finally heard the news that it needed a new subframe. Apparently, it's rusted out and becoming dangerous. Therefore, we've decided to let it go. We went to a dealer and they didn't offer us much because of the mileage/age and condition for the trade in. It does need some work but still looks better on the inside and out than overall condition. Here's a rundown of some of the issues. -The Air Conditioning no longer works-The heated seat on the drivers side doesn't work (passengers side works fine)-The Subframe is rusted and needs replaced/repair (I believe this is the biggest problem)-The back wiper does not work-The swaybar needs repaired (recommendation from our mechanic)-The rounded volt chargers (old cigarette lighter) don't work-The DVD Player does work, but the headphones for the dual sound system need repaired/replaced. We've maintained the vehicle pretty well and always made sure to get the oil changes and whatever needed done. I'm not a car guy, so I don't know how difficult some of these fixes are. It's just time for the car to go and I hate to just give it to the dealership for next to nothing. I would recommend to have it towed or not to drive on the highway (that was our mechanics recommendation) as I do believe the subframe is a major issue.
