Consumer Description

My issue is with the transmission when applying the brakes. It seems to be the regenerative braking switching back-and-forth between the brake pads and the regenerative motor. Which causes the dash to come up with a bunch of error codes, including ABS brakes, traction control, airbags, Lane monitoring. these transmissions have about a 75% failure rate.
