What owners report

  • Owners report hard, jolting downshifts when slowing down or coming to a stop, sometimes feeling like a rear-end collision.
  • Some describe transmission hesitation at steady speed, especially noticeable around 25 mph and more pronounced with the air conditioning running.
  • A common complaint is loud brake squealing when backing up, often starting cold and sometimes persisting even after the vehicle has warmed up.
  • One owner reported the automatic emergency braking system activating with no object present, calling the feature unsafe due to oversensitivity.
  • Another owner described exterior trim melting on the passenger side, which the dealer attributed to sunlight reflection rather than a defect.
