Typical electrical symptoms owners report

  • Daytime running lights and front turn signals fail within about three years, often requiring replacement of the entire headlight or taillight assembly rather than a simple bulb.
  • The Uconnect infotainment system repeatedly displays a 'box needs service' error, disabling SOS emergency calling and SiriusXM Guardian features until it recurs again after service.
  • Multiple warning systems and controls go out at once at low speed, including wipers, turn signals, adaptive traction control, and emergency braking alerts, with no recall identified by the dealer.
  • The center screen/display has gone black along with the transmission shifter indicator failing to work.
  • Owners report the fuel pump, satellite/antenna module, and headlight DRLs failing prematurely, with taillights burning out from water buildup.
  • A protruding, sharp piece of a taillight assembly caused a laceration injury when reaching into the cargo area.
