What owners wrote
Takata recall, this new car is a 2016 200s with5000 miles. This car caused a accident on 02/09/16 when the front brakes locked up at 50 miles an hour. Sending the driver into a light pole. When the vehicle hit the pole the air bags did not deploy from the steering. The air bags over all doors did deploy and the air bags on the side of the front seat did deploy but never the steering wheel air bag. The brakes are faulty and have gone all the way to the floor when pressing on the brake.
My car was working perfectly fine until I left work today. My check engine light came on as soon as I started my car and it kept saying 'check parking brake' and 'check airbags' I couldn't put my car in drive or reverse, it wouldn't go anywhere. Possibly because the parking brake wouldn't let me drive. Very strange, as it was sudden and unexpected.... Have never had a problem with parking brake or airbags.
