Defect Description:

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

This vehicle just shuts off out of nowhere while driving. It seems like electronics turn off. You can no longer accelerate no matter how fast you were going which can easily cause an accident especially because it happens without warning. I’ve taken it to two different body shops and neither can find any problems at all after extensively checking the vehicle for hours and even days. After they check it the vehicle works for a few days and then without warning will stop while driving again.

Potential Consequences:

I have almost crashed twice because my screen in my car flashes all these white lines ALL the time and even when I turn it off it will still do it and driving in the dark it blinds you randomly on a turn on the freeway and it’s dangerous I have found many people with he same car having the same problems and they try to make you pay an arm and a leg because it’s a wiring problem and you have to pay to replace the thing that holds the screen and whole front dash screen part because once it’s out on it’s stuck there it’s clearly a malfunction with the manufacturer and it is the screen that was originally built into the car. It starts out slow and does it very rarely and then just all the sudden goes awful. On the lower sections I put down around when the problem started and was as bad of a blinding

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

After being serviced by my vehicle’s dealership only a month earlier (and still well within the powertrain warranty), my vehicle suddenly stalled and shut off in the middle of the freeway during peak morning traffic. I narrowly escaped being hit by a semi-truck from behind and had to quickly pull over to the side of the freeway as safely as I could. I’ve taken my vehicle to several mechanics who could find nothing wrong with my vehicle, save the open recall on similar models (though not my VIN in particular, which I do believe to be an error) involving an issue with the powertrain and an electrical chip. This vehicle has been thoroughly maintained with regular service intervals, yet somehow will randomly stall and shut off when driving. It is dangerous and discouraging.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

The UConnect screen does not display images. You cannot see radio controls, temperature controls, etc. The screen is consistently showing bright white lines across the whole thing which is very distracting when driving at night. The main concern is not being able to use the back up camera. The car has quite a few blind spots, hence the need for a back up camera in order to safely reverse to insure you don’t injure a pedestrian or cause an accident. When I took it to the dealership, they said they’ve had many other cars with the same problem. However they are not figuring out what it is and their solution is instantly just installing a new screen for over $700.
