“My vehicle bcm (body control module) have gone haywire for the second time this year. My dashboard warning signals appeared as I was driving locally. All gauges will drops down to zero, dash board warning lights will begin flashing off and on, my emergency lights will become disabled and there have been two occasions when my car refused to start. I started to notice that when the at light and the traction control symbol light are on the vehicle speed will not accelerate to the speed for which I'm pressing the gas. My initial takeoff is very slow. …”
NHTSA complaint #11160592, filed 2018-12, 200,170 miles“We bought our car on a dealer in mesa, it was stationary. After we bought it we noticed locks moving on their own windows rolling down so did the moon roof. When we turn off the engine the A/C turns on even though the car is turned off. The car locks itself leaving us outside. We had problems with the tires they keep loosing up making the car vibrate and making sounds like banging on the tires”
