Consumer Description

WHILE MY VEHICLE IS IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 35 AND 55 MPH, ON A STRAIGHTAWAY AND CURVE, THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT/AND ALARM COMES ON RANDOMLY. SOMETIMES IT'S JUST THE ALARM THAT SOUNDS, AND SOMETIMES THE ALARM SOUNDS AND THE BRAKES ACTIVATE AND THE MINIVAN SWERVES. WAS THE MOST FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS EXPERIENCE EVER WITH MY YOUNG GRANDCHILDREN RIDING WITH ME. I ACTUALLY HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO CALM MYSELF. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WITH TODAY (7-24-19) BEING THE LATEST EXPERIENCE.
