Description of the problem | I am asking you to issue a safety recall on my vehicle. You investigated the 2015 model for the same issue and it was recalled as a result. The 2016 is just as dangerous. Is there a reason why the lives of people who drive 2015 models are more valuable than mine or my children? It turns off while driving with no warning and leaves me in the middle of intersections! The steering cuts off too. I have to first struggle to control the steering, shift into park, push start, and wait, while i brace myself for the impact that is about to shatter my spine or kill my children! It began as soon as i hit 60k miles a few weeks ago and happens every time i drive it. It happens mostly when i am turning, sometimes when braking for a light, and sometimes it doesn't actually turn off, it just seems like it is suddenly in neutral and makes revving sounds when i hit gas but wont go, that's when message says 'service transmission'. I was making a u turn and almost hit a pole! It may start up with first try, or a few tries. It hasn't happened in high speeds on highway but that may be because i am too afraid to go that route anymore. Obviously this is a manufacturing defect. I paid cash for this vehicle and should not have to pay a penny to fix this, but if i or mine are injured i will spend every cent i have on a lawsuit. Thank you for your understanding in this extremely important matter. |
