Owner report 11492075 · 2022-11-03 (November 3, 2022)
On 3 occasions while driving under 30 mph with no proximate vehicles my car suddenly began to intermittently brake and the dash flashed "collision warning". In two of them, I was able to pull over and turn off the car and restart--the problem did not repeat. In the third instance I kept driving (bucking along at 10 mph) and after about 50 yards the warning went away. The dealer ran a scan and cannot find an issue. They tell me they have to see it while it happens. The car may be at the dealer for months as they will be driving it to see if…

Owner report 11507911 · 2023-02-17 (February 17, 2023)
Purchased the car 1/28/2023 and drove it off the lot with 20 miles on the odometer. Within the first 15 miles and merging onto a freeway, the motor cut out and we were almost rear ended. The sudden loss of power nearly caused a significant accident. We replicated the issue several times. We took the car to the dealership in our home state. We were told it was a fuel pump and water pump issue and they were seeing it in about 20% of the new cars. As of 2/17/23 we are still without our new car as it has been at the dealership since waiting fo…

Owner report 11509779 · 2023-03-01 (March 1, 2023)
After my test, here's what I found: If the cruise control is Off and you press and hold the cruise control button for more than 2 seconds, the speed limit function activates as indicated by the "Limit" indicator on the multi-function display. In this mode, if the vehicle speed exceeds the limit speed and you press on the gas, the power is immediately cut off, and you can't accelerate. If the vehicle exceeds the limit speed, a warning bell will sound, and the speed will flash and power is cut when pressing on the gas. If the cruise control i…
