| Engine And Engine Cooling problems |
I was going up a steep narrow road, a big truck was coming down so I stopped and honked so he would back up. When he did, I was unable to move my SUV. It frooze entirely, wouldnt go up, wouldnt go in reverse, just stayed on but would not move. After several attempts I was able to go back a little and move to a side and then I was able to drive up the road. This was the 2nd time this has happened so I asked the service shop at the dealer to check in driving the same road. The situation did not replicate, therefore they say theres nothing they can do or check, although I have read that this vehicle has been know to do this, but they did not even look at the printed evidence I took to them. . There were suggestions on what had to be checked but the manager refused to even read the information. The mechanic suggested I step on the gas up to the end, although the manual says you should hit gas slowly when stoping on a hill. Either way I tried both ways. . . . It still freezes.

I parked, turned the car off and then my boyfriend, me and my dog went for 30 min walks. When we came back, we started seeing smoke coming out from a front hood, there were also flame on the right front side of the car. I immediately called 911 to describe the situation. While we were waiting for fire department, the car exploded. Insurance report stated no visual sign of tampering and fire department stated same thing.
