What owners wrote
Traveling in traffic about 35 MPH all of a sudden traffic came to stop. I applied my brakes and did not grab right away I turned the steering wheel to avoid hitting the vehicle in front of me. I hit my front left corner in the back right corner of the other vehicle. My air bags did not discharged,my frontal brake sensor gave no warnings . I just had my vehicle inspected last week. I filed a claim with my insurance company, made a police report.
The display screen for heat/air conditioning and airflow controls will randomly shut off. The temperature and airflow controls will still work even when the screen is off. I will have the heat set to 70 but it feels like I pressed the air conditioning button ( ihave not and checked by pressing the air conditioning button). While other times, I will have the air temperature set to 62 and it feels like I've turned it up to 85 degrees.
