All Forward Collision Avoidance Warnings Complaints
My suv begin to run hot and instantly water begins to boil and I was trying to pull off the road immediately.with no warning from the forward collision as a car hit me.

Help!
We had an issue with Fuse 34, it popped and sent warning lights to the dash regarding safety systems and sensors, as well as the cameras in front and back stopped working.

IT WAS JUST STOCK AND HARD TO MOVE. WE ARE SO GRATEFUL THAT THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING. WE COULDN'T TAKE IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC (WE DIDN'T WANTED TO EXPOSED OURSELVES TO ANY OTHER PEOPLE). FINALLY IN SEPTEMBER, THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THEY CALLED THE FOLLOWING DAY AND EXPLAINED THAT TO REPAIR WILL COST US $ 1790. PLUS OTHER REGULAR ITEMS THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE FOR A TOTAL OF $2098. WHILE I...
