I went to go at a stop light I got to about 15 mph and my car jus lost all power and didn't restart. When I tried to turn the key on and off again no power as well as everytime I put the key in the ignition it makes this weird buzzing noise when I try to turn it over.
I purchased this vehicle from the oringinal owner 11-17. He didnt inform me of any problems with the vehicle. Three days after purchase I had a dead battery. Then I noticed the speedometer and tach would stop working when I was driving, also the vsa warning light would come on when I was driving. I searched on line and found that there was many complaints about my same problems, and that the dealer was no help at all. I tried disconnecting the hands free link, but I still had a dead battery the next day. The only solution I have found is to disconnect my battery every day when I come home. I replaced the battery in Jan. 2018. There are also receipts in the vehicle from the origanal owner for the same problems.
Engine noise: A vibration and low buzzing sound in 5th gear caused by normal engine vibration at around 1,500 RPM, requiring a vibration damper near the rear motor mount. Also causing vibration on steering wheel at normal highways speed limits. And causing tires to cup and get bald. Very dangerous to drive on freeway causing steering to be very erratic due to vibration from front and rear broken engine mounts. Check-engine light: The check engine light may illuminate and a trouble code for the coolant sensor may be stored, but the problem is most likely a software glitch in the engine control module brakes: Brake pedal may feel spongy or have excessive travel due to air in the brake lines requiring replacement of the vsa modulator.
