“For over the last year my car has been locking and unlocking on its own .

NHTSA complaint #10899420, filed 2016-08, 123,000 miles

“The driver side break light and reverse light has had to be replaced too frequently. Now the gear shift - diag code u0103 seems to cause the loss of communication of the gear position. That only allows the vehicle to only travel about 20mph and approx 3000 RPM , which can be very dangerous if there is a unexpected slow down on the highway”
