What owners wrote
On several occasions, I thought I put the car in park, only to have the car start rolling again, even if I got out of the car or took my foot off the brake. On one occasion, it rolled into my garage entry door to my home. Caused hundreds of dollars damage to my door , and minor damage to the front bumper. Warning system in car sounded, but auto brake system didn't activate to stop the car.
Car delays when attempting to accelerate when stationary. Car then lunges forward when the transmission engages. At times I'm stuck in the middle of the road as vehicles are approaching. Makes if very dangerous when attempting to cross road.
