accelerating and decelerating while in motion and when
accelerating from a dead stop; as mentioned by another reviewer, accelerator hesitates before catching when shifting from reverse to drive; bumps in the road are not well absorbed (the 2016 model may have addressed this issue); no power to windows after you shut off the
engine; no auto door locks; poor V6 fuel efficiency averaging around 24 MPGs combined; trunk lid's arms and safety feature makes it heavy and sometimes hard to lift open; Infotainment system does understand most voice commands; and Harmon Kardon speakers are sometimes crackly.
