What owners wrote
I was completing a turn when the vehicle lost all power and shut completely off causing me to loose control of the vehicle and hit a curb. Vehicle was then towed to dealership where I was advised this happened due to a safety feature of my car . When the car is low on oil when you turn it throws off the oil pressure sensor so the engine doesn't blow up . My last oil change was in feb my car is completely out of oil and no check oil light appeared .
The rear brake calipers stuck on and wore the rear brake pads and rotors out in the first 50,000 miles. The front brakes barely show signs of wear.
