Description of the problem | I've had multiple incidences of a "bucking forward" of my car when braking on rough road or braking and turning right when there may be uneven road or pothole near rear tires. I've brought it for servicing , they are stumped but have suggested may involve abs. Recently, my abs light went on, indicating my system turned itself off. I waited 2 hours to be told that something wrong with sensor back tire which is reading that its going 250mph. They have to order part, i have to wait another 2hrs for the repair and was told it would cost me $200 as its not part of powertrain warranty. I think these things are all related and have told the service dept i predict this would be the next recall. They are brushing it off, but if anyone was in front of my car when it "bucked" forward, they could have been injured. I reported the recall for dead battery issue multiple times, was dismissed by the service dept and later that became a recall. Please look into this complaint. Thank you. I'm seriously considering getting rid of this car. Enough is enough. |
