Sometimes rolling into traffic.. This started immediately after purchasing the vehicle with only 12 miles on the odometer. I have taken the vehicle in multiple times and told they cannot recreate the issue snd are unable to identify a issue.. What worries me is that I have to potentially get harmed. The vehicle only has 26k miles on it. I am terrified to drive it.”
