“This vehicle was purchased today 04/21/2017 and I noticed that it is accelerating and decelerating itself. When I told the dealer they told me that since I drove it just 3 hours it is my own problem to own. Now am afraid to drive it as it may go over the uncontrollable speed or stop in the middle of the highway causing disasters.”

I look at the dash and it tells me that my traction is off, to check my stabilitrack, and also the brake was on. Then all of the lights turned back off except the traction light.
