20250305FireUNKNOWN OR OTHER
6 MONTHS AGO , AFTER DRIVEN IN THE RAIN, MADE A FAST TURN. ANTI LOCK BRAKES LOCKED CAUSING THE CAR TO SLOW DOWN BUT DRIVABLE. NO WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD. NEXT DAY THE CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. NOT DRIVABLE. BRAKES ENDED UP ON FIRE CAUSE BY TRYING TO PULL OFF THE ROAD TO SAFETY PARKING AREA. ENTIRE BRAKES SYSTEM HAD TO BE REPLACED.$2500 LATER, IT HAPPENED AGAIN LAST WEDNESDAY. CAR STILL AT THE SHOP. I WAS VERY SHAKEN UP, CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD IS DANGEROUS. DISTURBING TO KNOW IT CAN HAPPEN ANYTIME. I HAVEN'T TAKEN IT TO A DEALER BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW IF ITS A MANUFACTURE'S FAULT BUT THE MALFUNCTIONED KEEP HAPPENING. NEXT TIME THIS HAPPENS I WILL BRING IT THE DEALERSHIP. THE AUTO REPAIR PLACED AN ORDER FOR PARTS ON JUN 13,24 WHEN HE TOOK MY CAR.
20240810ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WE BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW IN 2015. SINCE THEN, WE HAD TO CHANGE BATTERIES 4 TIMES NOW. BACK IN 2016, WHEN THE FIRST BATTERY HAD TO BE REPLACED, THE DEALER ALSO CHANGED SOMETHING WITH THE STEREO, BECAUSE OF THE ELECTRICAL ISSUE. BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CAR'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, BATTERY SUDDENLY GOES DEAD. CAR HAS ABOUT 85,000 MILES ON IT. MOST RECENTLY, WE WERE AT A GRADUATION CEREMONY ABOUT 80 MILES AWAY FRON HIME, ON A HOT DAY, AND AFTER THE CEREMONY WAS OVER AT AROUND 2:00 PM, WE HEAD BACK TO THE CAR TO DRIVE BACK, BUT SUDDENLY CAR DIDN'T START. I HAD BOTH MY SENIOR PARENTS WITH ME AND IT WAS JUST A HORRIBLE SITUATION. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO LEAVE YOU AND NOT START. WHETHER IT'S SO MANY MILES AWAY FROM HOME OR ANY DELAERSHIP, LATE AT NIGHT OR EARLY MORNING.
