Consumer Description
I HAD STARTED MY CAR ONE MORNING AND NOTICED SOME "DUMMY" LIGHTS HAD NOT GONE OFF. I THEN GOT A NOTICE ABOUT "HILL SIDE ASSIST NOT AVAILABLE" THAT WAS WEIRD AS I WAS ON A FLAT SURFACE. THEN I ALSO GOT A NOTIFICATION THAT SAID "SERVICE ADVANCETRAK". THE WARNING LAMPS THAT STAYED ILLUMINATED ARE ABS, FRONT AIRBAG, STABILITY CONTROL, AND STABILITY CONTROL OFF LIGHTS. WHILE I DROVE OFF, THE STEERING WAS AFFECTED AS WELL, IT WASN'T LIKE I HAD NO POWER STEERING, BUT IT WAS DEFINATELY MORE DIFFICULT TO STEER. I GOT TO WORK, CALLED THE DEALER, MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR MY CAR TO BE LOOKED AT. WHICH WAS THENEXT DAY. WHEN I WENT BACK TO MY CAR AFTER WORK, THE WARNING LIGHTS AND NOTIFICATIONS DID NOT APPEAR. THE NEXT DAY, WENT TO THE CAR, GOING TO WORK, ALL THE LIGHTS APPEARED AGAIN. CAR WENT TO THE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THE SPEED SENSOR AND HUB NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE TOTAL COST IS $635.00 FOR REPAIRS. I HAVE SEEN LOTS OF COMPLAINTS OF THIS SORT FOR MY YEAR OF CAR. I BELIEVE A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED.
