ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

1 complaint

The radio unit provides the view of the rear camera. When the radio fails there is no back up camera. Apparently there is a power defect in the radio system so it will not function and therefore no rear camera function.

Was driving on the highway and the car started stuttering then stopped while I was driving. Had to pull over to the side of the road to avoid getting hit. The mechanic told me the transmission failed even though the car fluid was changed at the manufacturer suggest integrals. There was no warning lamps.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE

1 complaint

Driving on the highway to school the vehicle began to slow down and come to a stop even as I stepped on the accelerator. I parked on the side of the road and restarted and the same thing happened so I had my insurance company tow it. After researching I found that the manufacturer issued recalls for the vehicle but when I contacted them they said there were no found defects/recalls that caused these issues for my specific vehicle.
