Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While I was driving on a highway, the check engine light and traction control/stability light came on. You could feel the car loosen up, and the engine sound like it was misfiring or skipping. The car did not lose power, and ran fine the next time I drove it. However, it has happened a few more times. I have an appointment with the dealership, so we will see what they say. I did see that the 2012-2015 models underwent a recall for something similar. Maybe it is that same issue on this model. …”
