Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have had 5 visits with problems with engine , braking sensors, and automatic braking incidents when no obstruction is noted.

I am extremely concerned about the safety threats and lack of consistency when taking it to be repaired.”
NHTSA complaint #11518763, filed 2023-04“Feb. 1, 2024: A short drive on electric during below zero weather, a car wash & a couple 100ft drive into a parking lot.

At this time the words Collision Avoidance Assistance or something similar appeared on the dashboard screen. …”
NHTSA complaint #11453665, filed 2022-02“I received the the recall for the rear backup camera system not working now the whole cars safety system doesn't work. The infotainment screen keeps crashing and showing a dead android on it thus killing the Turn signal noise, climate controls, safety systems blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control randomly turns off, rear backup cameras still don't work. Overall this could lead to an accident as the whole cars safety system is not working and it makes me wonder if this could trigger the car to fail while driving if the operating system is malfunction or bad. …”

The acceleration was surging unexpectedly and without warning. …”
