Top problems in owners’ words

Service brakes
1 report
“accumulators begin to leak internally, as they share the same part numbers. Therefore, the actuator will buzz every few seconds trying to keep pressure in the braking system to a safe operating level of gas pressure to no avail due to this leak in the actuator. After it quits buzzing from shutting the car off, you can hear the air leak hissing the pressure away. There are tons and tons of articles on this issue online as this is a major safety concern”
Vehicle speed control
1 report
“Every car sold in America goes up to a speed that is illegal everywhere in America. Countless lives would be saved if cars were unable to go over 120 mph for example--a speed that no one can argue they should have a right to go, and no reasonable driver would ever approach”
Electrical system
1 report
“WHILE DRIVING FOR BUSINESS, I USE THE NAVIGATION AND INFO COMPONENT VERY OFTEN. I USE THE WEATHER AND TRAFFIC CONSTANTLY AS IT HELPS ME TO AVOID DANGEROUS WEATHER AND TRAFFIC JAMS. THESE COMPONENTS OF MY CAR DO NOT WORK. THE DISPLAY (WHEN ATTEMPTING TO USE) READS: "NO DATA IS AVAILABLE...PLEASE TRY LATER" THIS HAPPENS WHILE MOVING OR STATIONARY.”
