Consumer Description
THE ACTIVE SAFETY AND DRIVER ASSIST SYSTEMS RANDOMLY SWITCH THEMSELVES ON AND OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND ARE UNRELIABLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT BOTH HIGH AND LOW SPEEDS. IT HAS HAPPEN IN NORMAL DRIVING WEATHER CONDITIONS AND COLD WITH SNOW FLURRIES. THIS VEHICLE FAILS TO WARM TO TO "NORMAL" OPERATING TEMPERS ESPECIAL ON MN COLD DAYS. IT MAY NOT WARM UP PERIOD ON DAYS WHERE THE TEMPERATURE FALL TO 15 DEGREES OR LOWER. ON DAYS OF 50 DEGREES OR LESS IT WARMS UP WHEN DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS BUT IN LOW SPEED SITUATIONS IT MAY NOT WARM UP AT ALL. THERE IS THE DISTINCT SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE CAR AT TIMES. ADDITIONALLY THIS VEHICLE APPEARS TO HAVE AN OIL DILUTION PROBLEM AS THE OIL LEVEL REGISTERS ABOVE THE MAX OIL LEVEL LINE ON A REGULAR BASIS. IN MY MIND THESE ARE ALL SAFETY ISSUES. I WONDER IF THE SAFETY SYSTEMS WILL ACTUALLY WORK IF AND WHEN I NEED THEM. I WONDER IF THIS CAR IS GOING TO BURST INTO FLAMES AS I CAN SMALL GASOLINE IN THE CABIN. IF I SMELLED GAS IN ME HOUSE THEY RECOMMEND I LEAVE THE PREMISES. I CAN'T REALLY DO WITH I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I DO HAVE A FEW PICTURES OF SOME OF THE ELECTRONIC WARNING AND TEMP GAUGE BUT CANNOT DOWNLOAD FROM THIS LOCATION. I AM LISTING HERE THE FIRST INCIDENCE BUT KNOW THERE ARE A FEW INCIDENCES.
