Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Stability system indicator/traction active/traction control indicator come on when making left hand turn sometimes vehicle stalls when accelerator is pressed and traction active will illuminate on the dic. Dealer stated that it was a wheel hub sensor . Replaced left wheel hub assembly, still have same issue. In work on replacing right hand wheel hub assembly to see if this corrects issue, but by the look of some of the other responses it will not. Need a recall if this is happening, possible life threatening situation if car stalls when turning through oncoming traffic.”
