· At 5000 miles the passenger side window wouldn’t go down. Dealer replaced ‘bad’ motor.
· Cruise control doesn’t work all the time. Dealer can’t figure it out.
· 25,000 miles transmission replaced. The replacement transmission was defective & was replaced.
· Various electrical problems, which required relays being replaced.
BTW...These were the problems with our 2004 Lexus RX330.


Now, as far as the Vette, the only problem is that silly grin I have EVERY time I drive it!

Good One! Had me going, hook, line and sinker :o
