What owners wrote
While driving several times the electronic stabilitrak control system engage unexpectedly - while driving at different speeds the brakes engaged, the engine sounded different and traffic behind me had to quickly brake, prior to these incidents the service stabilitrak - so I took it to the dealer and they said they couldn't find anything gave it back to me and hour later it occurred again returned it to dealer again gave back to me took it to another dealer - it's in the shop now since 2/28/13 and I have rental…
I noted the exact same problem reported on the NHTSA site for this same make and model of car. It's included under the heading vehicle speed control. I just purchased this car in the past month and now notice that each time I try to move my foot from the foot feed to the brake pedal my foot catches on the side of the brake pedal. It seems to me to be an obvious safety risk in that it takes another movement of my foot to get it on the brake pedal slowing my response to brake.
