Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving the car on the freeway the gas pedal pressed down and accelerated on its own. I was unable to use the breaks to slow down and the throttle control light came on. It did after a minute or two stop accelerating and went into limp mode but the throttle control light shut off. I now have the car in the shop but they were unable to pull any codes like it erased itself from the memory.”
NHTSA complaint #11165005, filed 2019-01, 17,800 miles“The anti lock break and electronic stability control lights come on. When this happens speed control is deactivated. According to the dealership, it is an issue with the sensors, as I have had two of these replaced over the past 6 months. My account manager made the comment to just replace all of them as this is a regular problem. The cost is excessive, coming in at $400 per sensor. The lights have now come on a 3rd time, so the account manager was right. The date was august 26, 2020. The car has less than 60,000 miles, so I am beyond frustrated.”
NHTSA complaint #11351878, filed 2020-08, 58,500 miles“When accelerating it will sometimes throw itself into neutral. It also stays in a gear for a long period of time before shifting. It happens at random times while driving.”
