What owners wrote
I was coming up to a red light with a car stopped ahead of me and trying to brake but my brakes did not effectively slow my car so I rear ended the car in front of me going about 10mph or 15mph and his car had zero damage but my car would not turn off (push to start was not working) and my engine burst into flames and the whole front of my car burned.
Brakes have been screeching when I slow down to make a turn on residential road. But when I have the breaks checked I'm told they are fine. Also rhe passenger side small yellow light keeps goubf in and out. I brought it to the dealership a few months ago but the light came back on.
