What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
I was driving and I heard a loud noise the axle broke causing me to lose control and crash into 2 park cars. I at first thought I was hit by another car but upon further research I discovered I was not hit. When we purchased the car we were told there were no prior accidents or repairs.
An electronic throttle control (etc) warning light illuminates when this happens. The most recent occurrence was on august 24, 2026, at low speed in the middle of a turn with oncoming traffic present.
For the past years of purchasing this vehicle, the engine light keeps coming on and off.The camera never worked good because it would freeze, the screen would be blue, green, or red or completely blank out, with no rear view which is very dangerous. I would start the vehicle and engine light on dashboard.
The contact stated that after parking and occupying the vehicle at her residence inside her garage, the contact noticed smoke and a ball of fire coming from the cup holder console. The contact called 911. The contact stated she did not sustain any injuries. No medical attention was required.
While driving on the highway the vehicle shut off and would not start. All electrical power was lost.
The contact stated while driving the arrived at a stop sign, the vehicle parking brake would engage randomly. The contact was unsure if any warning lights had been illuminated. The contact mentioned that the failure almost caused her vehicle to be rear-ended during ongoing traffic.
