Electronic Steering Column Lock (ESCL) failed leaving me stranded as car was unable to start. There was a recall on the 2009 model but not my 2008 even with identical part.

Water driving off of the roof of the car got plugged. Also, water running into the engine has caused rust holes. Water has gotten into the car through the sunroof. LOTS of complaints regarding this issue. Needs recalled.

Dashboard is melting/cracking causing a glare creating a visibility issue. Definitely a safety issue.

Runaway acceleration. Three times now in the last two weeks the RPMs went to maximum redline without my foot on the accelerator pedal. Fortunately all occurred when I was at very slow speed and either in a driveway or a parking lot. Each time I immediately put the transmission to neutral and shut off the engine. For the first occurrence, Restarting the engine all went back to normal. But for the second instance, two weeks later on restart the engine again instantly went to maximum RPM (deep redline). On a second restart, with additional delay before attempting a restart, the problem cleared. I took the car to a mechanic and they said no error diagnostics were recorded. On test drive he said he noticed some brief unexpected surges. He said for liability reasons no way he would work on the car. No warnings, no instrument indications, car does not seem to "know" throttle is at max redline.
