NHTSA complaint #10884695, filed 2016-07, 23,000 miles“While driving, I conducted a normal pass on a two lane road. When I pressed the acceleration pedal, the car took off at a dramatic pace.

Shifting in neutral had no effect as the engine maintained its full RPM. While in neutral, the car's computer would not allow the engine to be shut off displaying a message that the car had to be in park before that was allowed to happen. …”
NHTSA complaint #11169845, filed 2019-01, 5 miles“'takata recall' driving my vechicle on city roads is fine, the vechicle runs perfectly but taking it in the highway is another problem. Picking up highway speeds the dashboard begins to shake as well as the steering wheel. It happens when I reach 80mph and is a concern to me. I've never experienced a problem like that in a vechicle so I thought it was a problem and told the dealership where I brought the vechicle from. Unfortunately the problem wasn't resolved so I'm askinging is this a problem I should worry about”

I then arrive at a 65 MPH limit stretch of road and so I accelerate by pressing the res/+control to accelerate the vehicle to 65 MPH. With all previous cruise controls, when I stop pressing this control at 65 MPH, the speed stabilizes. …”
