  • ELECTRICAL: on Thursday 10/24/2024 I went to use my car which was parked in my garage and although the car was unlocked none of the doors would open. The car was completely dead and I had used it just several days before. Nothing would open doors, trunk no response from the key fob. A tow truck had to be called

    Typically appears around 50K miles. Repair cost ~$500

  • TRANSMISSION: Similar to the GV80 issue, when the vehicle decelerates from 80 to 70 there is a loud whining noise coming from the vehicle.
