“While driving with the vehicle on cruise control, the vehicle went from 75 MPH to 0 on the interstate. I was able to coast into a nearby rest area. At this point the car would start, but none of the systems would operate. The dash displayed several system failures to include the hybrid system, check engine, pre-collision system, braking system and all-wheel drive system. This is a brand new vehicle purchased from a Lexus dealership. The milage at the time of breakdown was only 883 miles. …”
