Owner report 11677268 · 2025-07-30 (July 30, 2025)
I am unsure of the proper name of the component with issues. There are several little issues but the main is, I believe it would be a software issue... Basically, on several different occasions (4) while driving at 60 mph and over, the vehicle suddenly stalled and shut off completely with no warning. The one incident which was the very first while I was driving less than 1 month ago. I was on a two lane road/freeway with another passenger in the back seat going somewhere between 60 and 65 mph. The car went completely black and everything shut d…

Owner report 11738062 · 2026-05-15 (May 15, 2026)
Each time for the last year and a half that I have taken my car in for service or just stopped in and showed them that my radio is saying overheated current, they would test it and say that they couldn't recreate the error despite me showing that it would not connect my phone to the car or charge. I also reported having a random warning that my car was unleveled when driving and they said the computer shows no errors. When I last took my car in for an oil change 1/30/26 I had a break check done because my brakes acted like they didn't want to s…

Owner report 11741040 · 2026-05-30 (May 30, 2026)
The rear backup camera on this vehicle is excessively dim and difficult to see under normal daylight and ambient lighting conditions. The camera image is so dark that it significantly impairs the ability to detect obstacles, pedestrians, and other hazards behind the vehicle when reversing. This is a safety defect because the backup camera is federally-mandated safety equipment under FMVSS 111. The vehicle has no brightness or display settings available to correct the issue. The problem appears to be present from the factory. No aftermarket solu…
