In owners’ own words

Other mileage not reported 10 mo in service
From the time the vehicle is started, there is an approximate 15 second delay for the backup camera and rear cross traffic alert to display a live view when in reverse and the vehicle is in motion. I.E. putting the vehicle in reverse immediately after starting the engine will show a frozen, then 1-2 second delayed view of the actual image when in reverse. This problem happens any time the vehicle is started, and corrects after about 15 seconds, when finally an actual live view is displayed by the backup camera when in reverse.
Other mileage not reported 1.9 yr in service
Power steering would not work said to service blind spot unavailable and service electronic stability control
Other mileage not reported 2.0 yr in service
My car just put on the emergency brakes/forward collision warning while I was driving down the road out of nowhere and slammed on the brakes.
Electrical system mileage not reported 1.8 yr in service
Two problems: 1- this happened twice, after shutting and exiting the vehicle with the key fob, the vehicle goes crazy, lights start flashing, horn honking and the doors auto lock - very dangerous as my child was locked in the car for a few minutes until i was able to play with the key enough to get it to unlock. problem #2 driving vehicle and as coming to slow down it auto shuts off in middle of road, when trying to put it back into gear it says put foot on break and restart the car. it did restart but it is super dangerous as the car behind me could've hit me as it suddenly stopped.
