What owners wrote
Returned home from work and parked vehicle in driveway, got out and got groceries from passenger side. Went inside and about twenty minutes later was informed by neighbor that my car had rolled out of the driveway, across a 55 MPH street, and through ditch into neighbors yard. When myself and three other people approached the vehicle we were astonished to see that the e-brake had been engaged and yet the vehicle rolled down driveway with no signs of tire dragging.
The car intermittently does not start. Car will start after it sits for a length of time (could be hours or days) or after it has been towed to the dealership. Movement seems to shake the connection if that is the problem, into working. Has left owner stranded on numerous occasions in the last 5 weeks. Dealership says that if it can not reproduce the problem, therefore they can not diagnose it. Very dangerous for me if I get stranded in an unsafe area.
