The problem: You can drive fast or slow and at any given moment, the car display all alarms like the adaptive cruise control, emergency brake, engine. All the lights start to blink inside the car, there is a beep with those lights. The steering wheel does not move, gets locked, the brakes get locked (you cannot move the steer wheel or press the brakes), the engine starts to make a rattling sound and the car starts to bounce, then slowly the car starts shutting down until its off. This problem has been happening since I bought the car brand new on 2018. At the beginning, the car was inside the dealership ever so often to try to fix that problem. That recall was presented in other VIN numbers but not mine, but the dealer decided to "so call" fix it. The problem stopped happening for a while, then started again....
First time I was at a wedding didn't realize I had laid key fob on top of car . Car cranked when I left wedding I assumed it was in the car when I got home and tried to crank dash said no key detected. 2nd incident I keep key fob attached to my purse I picked up my grandson so he could use car . I just realized I have key on my purse and he has car 20 miles away so he's stuck there once he cuts car off and I have to find someone to take me there to give key .

AFTER PURCHASING MY VEHICLE ON 10/31/18, I EXPERIENCED 6 HEADLIGHT CHANGES FROM THAT POINT TILL 4/19/20. ON 4/19/20, WHILE DRIVING I SMELLED AN ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL. AS I PROCEEDED TO PULL TO A SAFE LOCATION MY HEADLIGHT INDICATOR LIGHT CAME THEN I LOSS ALL POWER AND FUNCTION OF THE VEHICLE.PRESSING THE BREAKS AND PULLING THE EMERGENCY BREAK MULTIPLE TIMES DID NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. APPROXIMATELY 150 YARDS AHEAD I SPOTTED A SHOPPING CENTER ENTRANCE. AS I PROCEEDED TO ATTEMPT A HARD RIGHT TURN INTO THE PARKING LOT WHEN FIRE BEGAN SHOOTING OVER THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND SIDE FENDERS. I FINALLY GOT THE VEHICLE TO STOP AFTER PUMPING THE HAND BREAK SEVERAL TIMES AND EXITED THE VEHICLE. THE RESULT OF THIS FAULTY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAUSED ME TO TOTAL MY CAR.
AFTER STARTING THE CAR, AND GOING IN REVERSE, YOU CAN HEAR A CRACKING OR CLICKING NOISE (IT'S REALLY HARD TO TELL), AND SOMETIMES IT'S REALLY LOUD, IF THE BRAKES OR SOMETHING ELSE WAS STUCK AND WAS ABOUT TO BREAK A PART. IT SOUNDS ON THE READ SIDE AND IN THE FRONT SIDE TOO. YOU CAN HEAR ONE OR 3 CLICKS. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER AROUND 3 TIMES IN 5 MONTHS AND FIRST, I WAS TOLD ITS NORMAL, THE SECOND TIME I WAS PUSHY, AND IT WAS A MATTER OF LUBRICATION I WASN'T TOLD WHERE EXACTLY, AND THE LAST TIME THE DEALERSHIP MANAGER TOLD ME THAT SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAD TO KEEP THE CAR FOR A WEEK, ( I GOT A LOANER, BUT IT HAS THE SAME ISSUE). THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACED THE BRAKE SYSTEM, AND ROTORS, INSPECT AND LUBRICATE ALL PARTS. BUT, I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULDN'T...
