| Service Brakes problems |
In three years I've had the automatic emergency braking system engage and almost cause accidents several times. The breaking system engages when it's not needed. Going down a road driving straight at 25 mph, no obstacles in road and breaks engage. Verry scarry, what if I was going 65 mph on the highway! another incident was on an off ramp in a curve, and another making a u-turn. This is not ok!.
I see black/gray spots on the headlights and sometimes I cannot detect if it is something in the road. Especially if it is raining. I called today for my maintenance and I am going to address this. Another issue that scared me to death. I was backing out of my garage, I was clear to continue backing but it kept beeping. Again I checked and nothing there, I began to continue and all of a sudden the car braked on its on hard. It was so alarming. I’m glad I was not in traffic. I am addressing this as well at my dealership. Another issue, I am feeling a hesitation when I accelerate, like it is not getting gas, then it starts going without hesitation. I am addressing this as well at my dealership. Another issue all of a sudden the eye sight crossed through came on. No reason for it to come on. I will address with the dealership.
Hit a deer the vehicle immediately was on fire and burnt to the ground. It had 3000 miles on it.
