Engine needed to be replaced as part of the recall for knock, however they said because the repair was done on a subsequent work order and the first one was for a failed aeb module that none of the repairs are covered. I'm out over $13,000 for what should have been warrantied.
Forward collision avoidance system activated with no vehicle stopped in front. Brakes locked up multiple times and then unlocked.
