The panoramic sunroof gets stuck on passenger side, and came off the rail on the passenger side as I was driving on the freeway.
While driving past, close proximity or even going 30-40mph on a local road or even 60-70 on a highway the break assist function will repeatedly beep, and most times it will stop my car for me. This occurs also, when there are no cars near me! it’s very sudden, and unpredictable. On more occasions than few, if I’m driving in the middle of a 3- lane road, and cars are stopping in the far right lane, or making a turn my break assist will malfunction and automatically break. Multiple occasions I feared that a car may rear-end me. It happens alot. Very scary. This has been occurring for more than 2 years.
I bought a car that had an light accident and turns out to be missing the collision sensor in addition to bad battery that I had to change and had issues with recoding the airbags which are not working now.
