“I was driving in the left lane of a major highway at 65 MPH and was braking slightly for traffic and the car suddenly lost power and gearbox fault and parking break fault started flashing. I had to cut off three lanes of moving traffic to get to a shoulder. The car was stuck in drive but would not accelerate. We shut the ignition and the car became stuck in park. I had been complaining of noises and a poor performance for months with no resolution. …”
NHTSA complaint #11189719, filed 2019-03, 45,896 miles“I was driving on the southern state parkway in new york during rush hour. Driving approx 10mph at a steady pace and had been in the car for about an hour. All of a sudden my 2017 evoque stalled out when I pressed the gas pedal. I came to a stop in the middle of the traffic lane, as there wasn't enough time to pull off the road. Once I shifted the shift knob into park, the knob disappeared into the center console as pictured. Numerous attempts were made to restart the car with no luck and no error indication on the dash. …”
NHTSA complaint #11180171, filed 2019-02, 40,000 miles“Transmission sticks in 3rd gear on low speed 30 - 35 MPH. Rpm stays at 3000 - 4000 . Due to that it starts to make very loud noise. If car is not stopped and cooled for some time (30 min) it can lead to overheating and probably destroying the clutch.”
NHTSA complaint #11021185, filed 2017-09, 850 miles“While driving at approximately 10 MPH in city traffic an error light indicating gear box fault appeared followed by numerous other warnings. The vehicle shut off and coasted to a stop. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for service, after 26 days in service and 80 miles driven by a service technician the dealer continues to tell me they have no idea what the problem is. They indicated that the computer reports indicate a major problem occured but they are unable to recreate it.”
