Owner Complaints (7)
Your control arm suddenly fell off while turning into your driveway at about 61,000 miles, making the vehicle unsafe to drive. The service department indicated the vehicle had severe underlying damage that would cause ongoing suspension problems even if repaired. This critical suspension failure could have caused a serious accident if it happened at highway speeds.

Your car is randomly stalling while you're driving, but it restarts after each shutdown. This has happened multiple times over an extended period. A mechanic will need to diagnose the stalling issue, which could involve checking the fuel system, ignition system, or engine control modules.

Your car's horn keeps honking by itself without you pressing the horn button. You've taken it to the dealership twice for repair, but the problem keeps coming back. The dealership says they can't find any diagnostic codes to explain why it's happening, and the horn doesn't activate while the car is at the shop. The repair may involve diagnosing the horn switch, wiring, or the horn relay circuit to find the intermittent electrical issue.

FILLED MY GAS TANK AT THE GAS STATION BEFORE GETTING ONTO THE HIGHWAY. CAR STALLED AND TURNED OFF MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY ABOUT A MILE DOWN THE ROAD. LOST CONTROL OF BREAKS AND STEERING. NO WARNING LIT UP ON DASH. GOOGLED AND FOUND OUT MANY OTHERS HAVE THIS ISSUE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND I WAS ALMOST KILLED, SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.
OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER BEEN WAITING SINCE 2016 SEPTEMBER CALLED 10 TIMES AND NO PARTS I BETTER NOT GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND I HAVE AN INJURY.
AFTER DRIVING 180 MILES, MY TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER LIGHT CAME ON, WAS GOING BETWEEN 75-80MPH, WHEN THE LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST ACCELERATION POWER TO THE VEHICLE. I PROCEEDED TO EXIT TO A NEAR BY GAS STATION, AND READ IN THE MANUAL THE SMALLEST PARAGRAPH ON WHAT TO DO. AFTER PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL, TURNING OFF THE A/C, RADIO, AND HEADLIGHTS, I LET THE CAR SIT AND COOL OFF. WITHIN 4 MINS THE LIGHT WENT OFF. I FILLED WITH GAS SINCE I WAS RUNNING LOW. FROM THAT POINT THE VEHICLE STALLED AND BUCKED WHEN LEAVING THE STATION AND DIED WITHIN 500 FT FROM THE PUMP. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE IT JUMP AND BUCKED ONE MORE TIME, THEN DROVE FOR 25 MILES TO MY DESTINATION WITH NO OTHER PROBLEMS. PLEASE PROVIDE FEEDBACK ON TO WHY THE TRANSMISSION TEMP LIGHT WOULD COME ON WHILE DRIVING, AND PROVIDE A SOLUTION. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 YEARS NOW, ONLY HAVING ISSUES WITH STALLING AND VEHICLE DYING AFTER FILLING UP AT THE GAS STATION. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 8 MONTHS NOW AFTER EACH FILL UP.
THE CAR IS MAKING A SOUND SO LOUD THAT TO TALK YOU HAVE TO TALK VERY LOUD AND THE RADIO TO HEAR HAVE TURN IT UP LOUD. WE THOUGHT IT WAS IN THE TIRE AND WE BOUGHT NEW TIRES AND IT IS STILL MAKING THAT SOUND. THE CAR DEALER COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. SO I AM ASKING YOU ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING
