“When I was driving my 2023 GV 80, I was applying pressure onto the gas pedal and the car suddenly started jerking. The car was not accelerating then the check engine sign came on and then the car completely turned off. Then I restarted the car and it was moving really slow. Similar incident happened few other times and luckily I was able to pull over to the parking lot after turning on the hazard light. I drove my car over to the dealership and dropped it off. I am afraid that someone is going to get killed in an accident while they're driving on the highway or crossing the streets”
NHTSA complaint #11544854, filed 2023-09“Car engine stalled multiple times after a stop. Once car did that right after light turned green and I tried to accelerate. Almost causing accident by getting hit by behind. Also did it in parking lot, what happens the gages stop showing information and only the miles driven on the bottom left. Twice had to turn car on and off, once it was able to start back up on its own after pressing accelerator. Dropped off vehicle in dealer today for repair, they mentioned prior year models issue was related to fuel pump. …”
