I got this brand new car. However it has major defects pertaining to drive shift, auto shut , sensors, speedometer and the virtual cockpit. I was driving on freeway 5 south bound when I shift the gear from "d" to "s" and it went into neutral and it lost power. There were cars behind me who were honking and scared for my life. The car was a brand new when I got it, I got the car on 11/29/2019. On I drove it for only three weeks before I starting to have issues with the virtual cockpit where it blacks out.
Among many other issues, the screen that includes the speedometer goes blank during drive, backup camera doesn't work while reversing, pre-sense applied brakes on freeway while nothing was ahead and the car swerve hard on the freeway while driving at speed 65 miles/hour
Yesterday morning, while driving north on I-35 to work, there was a loud "pop" from directly above my windshield. This scared me to death! The sound was so frightening that I ducked and for a moment, I thought I had been involved in a wreck but quickly noticed nothing out of the ordinary had occurred. Typically, traffic is very heavy, only moving about 20MPH. However, on this particular morning, traffic was somewhat lighter and moving about 40MPH.
