“The gas gauge is not accurate and ever since running out of gas the first time it's been acting stranger and stranger. The noise no longer chimes when running low it also doesn't have extra fuel reserve so once you run out you run out. My cars fuel pump just went out in the middle of the freeway and this was at night. The car no longer starts yet alone move. I got stuck on the freeway traffic on both sides it was full of people flying by me so I could not even get out to move.”
NHTSA complaint #11301510, filed 2020-01, 85,433 miles“If you have the AC full blast and are idling at a red light the car will stall out as if it weren't getting fuel because it won't start right back up. In order for me to start it I had to press and depress the acceleration pedal while attempting to turn it over. If turning over exceeds the batteries voltage it will kill the battery resulting in worse problems. If you're lucky it will turn over after a long time turning it over while pushing gas pedal but if you don't unplug and plug in the fuel pump it might not work. …”
NHTSA complaint #11342745, filed 2020-08, 30,000 miles“When it is cold outside the engine stalls or lose power during acceleration. Today 11/29/2018 it was 28 degrees. I warmed the car up for a few minutes because of the stalling problem. I was driving on the street for two miles when I came to a stop sign. I put on the brakes and the car just shut down. The car was still in drive. There was no check engine light or warning prior to, during, or after the time the car shut down. I had to turn the ignition to the off position. Put the car in park. Then cranked the car back up to drive out the way of the cars behind me. …”
