Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The vehicle was traveling 60 MPH on a highway when I got a message on my dash screen saying 'service shifter'. It disappeared after about 3 seconds. Nothing appeared again. The car was acting fine. Two days later the car unlocked by the remote and then would not start. The shifter knob flashed red multiple times repeatedly. I couldn't lock the door or the car would automatically unlock all doors as if I had the key fob inside still. I could not start the car, turn on accessories or shift into any gear. I had power to my lights etc. …”
