 This vehicle has extensive problems 
with the electrical system throughout 
its warranty period.  The dealership 
was consistently unable to difinitively 
diagnose the problem.  Since warranty 
expired (about 1 1/2 years ago)there 
has only been one episode... so perhaps 
they finally did fix the source of the 
ongoing problems.  
Maintenance is expensive on this 
vehicle as should be expected and it is 
not easy to find a qualified mechanic 
outside the dealership, especially one 
that can accomodate my personal needs 
for convenience.
