First off- hi I'm new. Joined a while ago just forgot the logon. Anyways, I have read many of these posts and I have similiar issues. Here's the list.
On third set of hubs, strut mounts and control arm bushings?? only 40000 miles.
No start issue - turn key and it won't turn over the motor, just "boos" at me. Have to let it sit for 5 minutes before attempting start. Or - I can hold the ignition turn and force it to turn over in which it boos then it turns like the battery is almost dead then it fires up.
Power issue - driving down road and lost all my power (like I shut off the key) reset all guages, no error code. Only happened once. I have had all gauge lights go out a few times, and car shut off intermittently, and then turn itself back on.
ABS, Traction off, and service light on. I hit the brakes one day to avoid a deer and the after that I was driving along and it made the abs moo sound and the lights have been on ever since.
Wiper motor- been replaced, intemittent struggles to work, or will not shut off.
Blower motor - replaced twice, bearing is squealing, probably ready for third motor.
This car has always been dealer maintained. Any suggestions why I have so many problems? It was bought brand new.

You must have got a lemon, there's not much else to say. My 2003 has been trouble free except for a leaky foglight.
