On two occasions during the week before October 23, 2026, while driving on a freeway at approximately 50-60 mph, pressing the accelerator produced no normal acceleration and the vehicle slowed down. The dealer work order recorded speed dropping from about 50 to 35 mph despite the accelerator being fully pressed. This created a risk of being struck by faster traffic.

Read the full complaint
dealer test drive. Exact incident dates and the failed component are unknown. The incident date entered, October 20, 2026, is an estimate within that week, not a known exact date. Warning-light status is unknown. No crash, fire, injury, death or police report occurred. Separately, the steering became abnormally heavy and difficult to turn. Three dealer repair visits were needed before the steering concern was finally corrected. Dealer records reference steering repair orders dated June 23 and July 15, 2026. A later repair record describes binding front strut mounts and steering column, prior steering rack replacement, and eventual steering column replacement resolving the concern. An engine mount leak was also repaired. There have been approximately five or six service visits total. The vehicle is now at home. I request investigation of the unresolved loss of accelerator response and the repeated steering repairs.
