Right suspension makes scraping and knocking sound. When driving,.
While going on up and down steep hills in a city all of a sudden the engine stalls and the breaks stop working. This happened to me several times and to my luck as there was no traffic I got escaped without any accidents. Both the times I stopped the vehicle by shifting it to the parking mode. Some times the steering also automatically shifts to manual mode and the steering becomes tight. So the issues are with both the brakes and steering and this could be a computer/communication glitch which is not communicating with the brakes properly. When I stop the vehicle and restarts after sometime again brakes works normally and everything works fine. But after some days this issue repeats. Right now I am taking the vehicle to the nearby dealer to get more information on the vehicle condition. Once I get a clear explanation of the vehicle condition I will add more information to this complaint. Right now the mileage on the vehicle is 105000. I think there are some recalls on this vehicle and I am not sure if they have recall on this particular case.

I had to purchase new tires due tro uneven wear on the passenger side of the car. I have been hearing a thunking noise, periodically, in the location of the passenger front tire location.
