Consumer Description
THE SEALS AROUND THE DOORS, WEATHER STRIPPING IS COMING LOSE, SEATS ARE FALLING APART, THE RADIO AND NAVIGATION SCREEN WILL GO BLACK AND REBOOT ITSELF. THE COLLISION CONTROL SYSTEM WILL GET YOU KILLED IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL. I WAS GETTING ONTO THE HIGHWAY FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT, HAD MY TURN SIGNAL ON. AS I'M MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 50 MPH, THE CAR THINKS I'VE FALLEN ASLEEP OR SOMETHING. THE CAR FORCIBLY TAKES ME BACK INTO THE RIGHT LANE AND DOWNSHIFTS THE CAR WHILE BRAKING? SCARED ME TO DEATH. I WAS TOLD IT WAS BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE A TURN SIGNAL ON. LUCKILY IT WAS 3AM OR I COULD'VE BEEN SMASHED. ALSO, THE BRAKE LIGHT WILL FLASH AT TIMES, NO ONE IS IN FRONT OF YOU. OR IT FLASHES LIKE YOU'RE ABOUT TO HIT SOMEONE BUT DOESN'T DO ANYTHING BUT FLASH. ALSO, IF YOU DRIVE ANY LENGTH, IT SYSTEM WILL STATE THAT THE DRIVER HAS LOW ATTENTION SPAN. NOT SURE WHY, IT'S NOT LIKE I'M WEAVING. I THINK THE CAR NEEDS TO FEEL SOME MOVEMENT OF THE STEERING OR IT THINKS YOU'RE NODDING OFF. THE CAR SALESMAN WARNED ME THAT THE NEW BELLS AND WHISTLES, TECHNOLOGY, COULD HAVE ISSUES BECAUSE THE TECH IS NEW BUT NOTHING SPECIFIC. TRY TO SELL ME 3800 IN WARRANTY TO COVER TECH. THOUGHT IT WAS STRANGE AT THE TIME. NOW, I'M THINKING THAT HE KNEW SPECIFICS AND DIDN'T SHARE.
