“I was on the expressway and was going around a curve and noticed that my power decreased and felt like my car was not moving as fast. I looked and the check engine light on my dash was on and it said engine power reduced, and the 2nd screen said to check stabilitrak. I got off at the next exit and pulled right into a parking lot. When I turned off the vehicle and turned it back on it still had the check engine light on, but the service stabilitrak was off. I had it towed to my parents and the next day it was towed to a repair shop. The mechanic inspected it and it is an oil consumption issue. …”

“At 48,500 miles approx. My transmission started slipping and failing. It started with a jolt when coming to a stop then when the light turned green and the automatic transmission went from 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd it would jolt hard like it struggled to change gears. It does not show any issues on the mechanics computer. Now 2 weeks later it stalls at 14mph when going up a hill, it wont change gears and loses power going down to 11mph. It is a very dangerous situation. Its the v6, premiere model and is very disappointing since it has less than 50,000 miles. …”
