What owners report

  • Some vehicles unexpectedly shift into drive or park on their own, causing collisions or sudden stalls at low speed.
  • Engine problems include leaking oil from a blown crank shaft seal shortly after delivery and loss of power accompanied by a temperature warning and unusual noise while driving.
  • Electrical faults cause sudden loss of power, steering, and engine control in traffic, with the vehicle coasting to a stop and multiple warning lights appearing.
  • Transmission-related error messages such as 'shift into park' leave the accelerator unresponsive until the vehicle is stopped and re-shifted.
  • Second-row seat easy-entry mechanisms fail repeatedly, throwing the seat forward and triggering a dashboard warning.
  • A tire experienced complete and rapid air loss on the highway without a timely warning from the tire pressure monitor.
