That was one of the many things that got fixed during the DMV inspection.

Thanks

OP, Great find!!! I have the 2008 but I got a full bumper to bumper warranty with mine. Not too many issues fortunately. I had a radiator go and a couple of oil leaks, (alternator bracket and valve cover gasket). Other than that she has been solid. I found out how to do a mod on the sunroof to stop the second/rear panel from opening. I was told that they are a trouble spot so I found a Youtube vid on how to make the mod. Worked out perfectly. I was trying to avoid $2000.00+ repair I was quoted. Enjoy your ride. Never heard of the "Buy as is" thing but it could be interesting!!!

Oh, and I would definitely get on Rockauto.com and source your parts. Water pump, altenator and a few other parts to keep in your shed for future needs.
