| Electronic Stability Control problems |
Driving on the highway, all of the warning lights came on, the fuel gauge dropped to empty, the rpm gauge dropped to zero, the thermostat needle rapidly flickered up and down then the car shut off. The vehicle won't start, the instrument gauges move by themselves with no key in the ignition and now the car has zero power. . This car has been doing this for the past 3 months.
The car will turn over but wont start. It's not getting spark. Ran it to test codes. Came back as tps. Changed it and it all won't start. Was told possibly a recall on the ignition.
While driving the vehicle it will sometimes just cut itself off with no warning. I put it in park and restart it with no problems but it just cuts itself off again without any warning what so ever. Luckily for me it has only done it when there has been light or no traffic or when I have been at a stop sign.
The entire cluster system went out,$2200. 00 replacement,the entire dash is coming down with a cost of $1000. 00 dollars for replacement,valve cover gasket needs replaced with cost of $1200. 00 cost to consumer,the brakes have been reworked for 300. 00 dollars at a cost to consumer,actual mileage 43000- now problems started at 90,000 miles,the car constantly leaks in the auto when it rains,I feel as a consumer this vehicle should be recalled because I've had nothing but problems since the day of purchase,lost wages being stuck on the side of the road,pain and suffering because I only live on disability,and a part time job,and it took it all for repairs!!!!!.
Trac off light and anti-lock light on, car jerks into drive, and while changing gears. Has to replace sensory, drive shafts, etc. Brakes don't work, car jerks after 3000 rpms, dangerous, and can cause crash.
