Consumer Description
I HAD BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE KEYLESS ENTRY NOT ALLOWING ME TO UNLOCK THE VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES. THEN ON A FEW OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T START AND ALL THE LIGHTS WOULD FLASH ON THE DASHBOARD. THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BATTERY BECAUSE I REPLACED THAT SEVERAL TIMES IN THE FIRST MONTHS OF FINANCING THE VEHICLE. THE LAST INCIDENT WHEN IT STOPPED WORKING I WAS DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN ON ITS OWN, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD FLASHED, THE VEHICLE POWERED OFF, I COULDN'T SWITCH THE GEARS, THE BRAKES LOCKED, AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AS WELL. LUCKILY, THIS DIDN'T CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BUT THE VEHICLE DID STOP. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO INFORMED ME THAT THE KEY FOB AND POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE WAS NOT WORKING. I LOOKED IT AND APPARENTLY THIS HAS ALREADY BEEN REPAIRED IN JAN 2013 BEFORE I FINANCED THE CAR AND THE VEHICLE MUST HAVE STILL BEEN HAVING ISSUES BECAUSE I HAVE HAD CONTINUAL PROBLEMS WITH IT.
