“First, the door no open with the control. Second, when I drive the car its no have power, its in slow velocity. When I put in drive, beginning to tremble. Have the light, that said check .”
NHTSA complaint #11340493, filed 2020-07, 38,000 miles“When I was driving at night with headlights on, with cruise control on, the car accelerated by itself upto the speed of 85 MPH even though I set cruise at 65 MPH. I tried this multiple times and all the time it went up to 85 MPH and stayed there even though I set it for lower speed. This seems to be happening while the headlights are on. I have drove with cruise on, in the daytime and it works fine. Since then, I have never drove this with cruise on at night.”
NHTSA complaint #10854570, filed 2016-04, 16,000 miles“I was making a right turn pulling into a parking space in a shopping mall. I was approximately 1/2 to 3/4 of the way in when the vehicle took off and went into a tree and then a wall. I would guess the vehicle traveled approximately 40 feet after the sudden and unintended acceleration. This definitely was sudden and unintended acceleration. The front end of the vehicle was damaged by the tree and the wall the air bag did not deploy.”
NHTSA complaint #10667863, filed 2014-12, 4,900 miles“On 6/19/2016 driving home from running errands, I stopped at at red light but when the light turned green, the car didn't budge even though I was tapping and pressing the pedal. After about 7-8 seconds, the car finally responded and started slowly rolling to normal speed. On the same trip and the last intersection, the car did this again but at a stop sign. The gas pedal was dead when coming out of a complete stop. It took another 7-8 seconds for the engine/transmission to recognize it was time to roll. …”
NHTSA complaint #10875137, filed 2016-06, 24,000 miles“The car sometimes has a hesitation problem from a dead stop; especially when making a left turn. This creates a scary situation due to I never know when it's going to happen so I have to wait quite awhile for oncoming traffic to spread out much further then normal (about 50 car lengths) sometimes this is not practical so I have to chance it & hope not to get broadsided. The dealership is of no help & I doubt if they have written it down the 2 times I reported it. This problem has happened over 50 times over the last 21 months & started in month # 1. …”
