I was driving the vehicle on a main street at about 30 MPH, when suddenly it stopped hard. The impact of the stop made me hit my chest against the stirring wheel.. Now I have a painful ache on my chest and back..my body feels very sore from this sudden impact. The car iis new! These type of incidents should not be part of our driving experience, at all!

Reported at 600 miles, September 2019 Crash

Proceeding from traffic light, merging left with traffic, while accelerating car/suv had a complete power failure, shook violently, all lights on dashboard went on. I had no power and/or control of vehicle. It was dangerous, scary and I shook like vehicle did. Luckily, I was on a slight incline, so I coasted to the side of the road. I turned vehicle off/on and it did not reoccur. Took into dealer, they did nothing and even misrepresented how many miles they allegedly drove to try and replicate.

While attempting to back out of my garage the rear automatic emergency braking engaged. There is no reason it should have engaged, it was dark out but nothing was around. The car made a horrible sound which scared everyone in it. Thankfully it was not on the highway like others have been. I have disabled the automatic emergency braking system option but I should not have to worry about my car I have owned for 45 days doing this.
