Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“In *extremely* cold weather - below of - the vehicle will start successfully however the stability/traction control, anti-lock brakes, and hill-assist (part of the ABS system) trouble indicator lights will light and stay lit. Based on the instruction manual if this occurs, I should cycle the ignition to see if the code clears. This is an unacceptable solution because the car's battery is already extremely stressed due to the cold temperature and may not restart the vehicle. However, on one occurrence I did cycle the ignition and the problem remained. …”
