Consumer Description

MY WIFE AND I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN 2013. WE HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE ESC PULLING US INTO TRAFFIC AND OFF THE ROAD. WE LIVE IN A WINDY ROAD AREA NEAR YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK AND CAN'T SAFLEY DRIVE AROUND WITHOUT HAVING TO SHUT ESC OFF EVERY TIME WE DRIVE IN FEAR THE CAR TRIES TO PULL US OFF THE ROAD WITH OUR CHILDREN INSIDE. WE HAVE EXPRESSED OUR CONCERN TO THE DEALER THE VERY FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE IS NO PROBLEM AT ALL.
