“On march 22, 2020, the vehicle entered the 'limp home mode' while traveling on an interstate highway, where the speed limit was 70 MPH. Prior to the failure, warning lights were present on the dashboard for ABS, esp, and asr, with cruise control disabled. These indicator lights would clear occasionally after the vehicle was not in use for a period of time, and then reappear again after driving for about an hour or two. The vehicle was towed to a dealership, where two failed speed sensors were replaced to correct the problem. …”
