Consumer Description
Vehicle flashed a warning that Active Distance Assistance was not functional, and within a few minutes started to veer left, as if there was a flat tire (which there was not), so I was trying to keep it centered in my lane when the steering wheel suddenly turned counterclockwise in my hands and swerved the vehicle to the hard left into an oncoming lane. I had to hit the brakes hard and yank the steering wheel back to the right to bring the vehicle back into my lane, just barely avoiding on coming cars, who had slowed when they saw me coming at them. This was an extremely narrow miss, if the oncoming vehicles had been next to me, the RV would have collided just like that. I have suffered severe mental duress from this event, and do not know whether the vehicle is safe anymore. My friend was following me and witnessed the incident. When I arrived and my house and backed up in to my driveway, the rear backup camera was acting up and blipping the image in and out rapidly, like it was shorting out. I had recently had the vehicle in to the local dealer for work on the same malfunctioning control system, which failed on us in our April 2022 trip to Utah. Supposedly they had fixed it all.
