Defect Description:

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Potential Consequences:

The headlights randomly flicker on and off while driving at night. This not only causes a distraction while i'm driving but is also affecting other drivers. Drivers in the other lane keep mistaking the flicker as me turning on my bright lights which is leading other driver to retaliate and either put on their bright lights or flash their brights at me. I also had one instance where a car I was following thought I was continually flashing my head lights at him and he proceeded to get behind me and tailgate me with his bright lights on. Due to the frequency of the issue and the unknown cause I fear that at some point the lights will go out completely while driving at night. The truck has been taken to the dealer an they state they are unable to reproduce however there is an only forum where multiple owners are reporting the same issue. I also posted a video to youtube demonstrating the issue [XXX] ). Here is a link to the forum where other owners are discussing the issue [XXX] ). Vehicle has only been inspected by the Dealership. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms prior to the failure. The vehicle is new and the issue has been present since the truck was new.

Defect Description:

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

Potential Consequences:

I was driving with my cruise control set at 77 mph in the fast lane of a four-lane highway. There was no one in front of me for more than 3/4 of a mile. A car in the lane to my right apparently triggered the automatic breaking system to the point it slammed on my brakes, pushed me into the steering wheel, and slowed me all the way to 38 mph in the fast lane of the freeway. The result of this unrequested breaking caused four cars behind me to almost rear end me and pile up. The second event was going down the freeway with the cruise control set at 65 and nobody around me and the car again slammed the brakes on for no apparent reason. At this point I’m afraid to drive the car. I have zero confidence in this vehicle letting me operate the vehicle. I need help.
