Consumer Description

ON OR ABOUT MAY 17 AND ON MAY 22 2018, THE ENGINE STALLED WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO ENTER AN INTERSECTION AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN. THE GREEN "ENGINE ON" LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. I HAD TO PUSH THE ENGINE START/STOP BUTTON TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF, THEN PUSH IT AGAIN TO RESTART THE ENGINE. AFTER THE MAY 22 INCIDENT, THE CAR MEDIA SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED AFTER THE CAR WAS RESTARTED. THE SCREEN DISPLAYS WERE NORMAL, BUT THERE WAS NO SOUND FROM ANY SOURCE INCLUDING THE TURN SIGNALS AND 4 WAY FLASHERS.
