I would not recommend this vehicle!
This SUV was purchased when it was three years old. I like the looks and the color of it, but that's about it. The main issue is that there are random electrical problems. The dashboard lights would go off while driving down the road and the dealership could never reproduce it to figure out what is wrong. The electric locks work... sometimes. The heated leather seats are more like a heated back... the back of the seat and the spot where the seat meets the back get so hot it feels like it burns the skin, but the actual seat does not. The design of the spare tire is unusual, to say the least. To access it you need to open the hatch and use a long tire tool to lower it down. It took a tow truck driver 45 minutes and several YouTube videos to figure that one out! And speaking of the hatchback, there is no way to open the glass part of the hatch, which severely compromises the functionality of it. Last but not least, the biggest design flaw is the location and function of the knob you turn to get into 4WD. The knob is located right near the radio button and behind the drink holder. Twice now, I have bumped that button and put the vehicle into 4WD without realizing it, which made me believe there was something seriously wrong with the car because of how it sounds in 4WD around turns. There is no dashboard light that comes on to alert the driver to the fact that the vehicle was put into 4WD. All in all, I regret buying this vehicle.

Weird electronic issues
The car has some weird electronic glitches that are very difficult to diagnose and manage. The seat heaters get very hot. However, they do not reach all the way to the end of the seat. When one headlight went out, it caused a "backup" of fuse issues, which resulted in me having no lights to drive home one night. The locks randomly lock and unlock. The hatch window won't open.
