This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Approximately 9:15am 5/16/21 I was driving on the road when my engine stalled and went out. Was stuck in the middle of the road for a couple of minutes while I tried to restart the car. My vehicle was recalled for this very purpose but 13 days prior I went into the dealership to fix the issue and get a software update. After said update I experienced the recall issue on my vehicle.
First noticed in a shopping center parking lot. I was distracted by something and did not put car transmission shift control in park. I touched engine start/ stop switch and engine turns off as it should. I proceeded to exit the car and noticed it rolling away. Since I was still in car, I realized what happened an corrected the oversight. Most people are used to key ignition and can not pull key unless tranny is in park. This is a safety issue and should be corrected.
On two separate occasions in the last month, during key on/startup/initialization, I will get an adaptive cruise control/aeb/lane keeping system failure. This is due to a fault in the camera module. Adaptive cruise control still works above 20 mph indicating that the failure is in the camera module. Failure is latched for the key cycle and but will recover after a long key cycle. 1st time the failure set, it was very warm out so I believed this was due to an overheat. The second time the failure set the temperature was in a normal range so my hypothesis is wrong. No unusual situation is occurring at startup except the failure. Have not taken to the dealer yet.
