“Pre safe collision warning- the lights beeps when there is nothing in front our next to me. It is very distracting. I took the car in to the dealer three times already for the same problem. Now it is still beeping. There needs to be a recall because it is very distracting and can cause an accident.”
NHTSA complaint #11160563, filed 2018-12, 78,000 miles“I was driving on route 40 (speed limit 55mph, but 45 MPH due to construction) when I began hearing rattling in my rear passenger side speaker, then crackling, a burning smell and then smoke filled my vehicle. I believed my vehicle was on fire. Had I not remained calm, I could have caused an accident. I ended up driving to a nearby walmart parking lot where I left my vehicle until it was towed to the dealership for a diagnostic. The tow truck driver also confirmed smelling the burning upon starting my vehicle to pull it onto the tow truck. …”
