SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
1) Since the day that I took delivery on 1/18/24, I have not had any audio- media, phone and safety warnings. This is extremely dangerous as I have no auditory warnings for any of the safety systems. I have never been able to listen to any entertainment through the speakers nor can I make a phone call, hands-free. If I have to make or take a call, I have to use Airpods- illegal while driving- or use the phone speaker, which is difficult to hear at higher speeds. In addition, 2) according to the warning lights on the dash, many of the safety systems are often inoperable. 3) Brakes sometimes fail, causing the car to continue forward after the pedal is depressed. It's extremely dangerous and very scary when it happens. 4) There is often a warning light that the 12-volt battery is low. 5) Overhead cabin lights come on while driving and make it difficult to drive when it is dark outside. 6) HVAC vents are broken/inoperable. 7) Rear mudflaps tore and are hanging. Thank you.

Potential Consequences:
The car stopped working, is now bricked in my garage. 3 different techs came to check it and all said the car gives them weird codes. One of the techs said the front unit motor needs to be replaced which will end up costing almost $8k. but it is not guaranteed that will fix the car. This is insane. I do not know what to do, as we paid cash for it with our savings and now had to lease another car to be able to get to work.

Potential Consequences:
The Over-The-Air (OTA) team pushed updates out to my car without warning...without any kind of notification. I was extremely upset as many cars from other owners got bricked. Luckily mine didn't get bricked but the full 2.2 updates did NOT get pushed. They picked and chose which modules they felt needed updated. So my car says it is at 2.2.2. I drove from Cleveland to Columbus to get my extra Key Fob and NFC cards programmed and was told (and I verified) that my PKC version was only version 09. This is so old that they were unable to even attempt to pair by fob/cards as it could brick the car. This is so disappointing and directly related to the OTA team not pushing the full 2.2 update which is supposed to address the recalls. This makes me very uncomfortable and upset not knowing if all the software recalls were completely addressed. The fact is...2.2 is supposed to address the NHTSA software recalls so that is what we should get. This is the certified version. Pushing partial updates out should not be acceptable.
