Electrical System · reported Nov 3, 2026

The vehicle routinely sets error codes C006C and C0063, which causes the vehicle to loose propulsion and go into a limp-home mode. This is an extremely dangerous situation, as you cannot keep up with traffic which can cause an accident. It also causes the vehicle steering and stability to become erratic and unpredictable. The vehicle will buck and wobble as the ABS, Traction Control and Stability Control all try to engage and fight for control of the vehicle. This is a potentially serious problem and the vehicle becomes hard to control and in some cases causes the vehicle to change lanes. To…

Steering · reported May 27, 2025

When entering a left hand turn at moderate speed, the vehicle will go into a lurching, bucking, hesitation period, usually when under slight or moderate acceleration. This results in an uncontrolled wobble that will eventually smooth out but can also result in a sudden burst of power that tends to rapidly propel the vehicle further to the left unless the throttle is quickly relaxed. Hard to describe, but the sensation feels like you are being âsquirtedâ out of the turn. I first noticed this barely a month after I took possession of the machine and thought it might be a normal handling…

Steering · reported Oct 21, 2024

Vehicle developed right wheel wobble on left turns over 90 degrees, when speed is ~40 mph or above. Unable to safely make turn, at speed. 3 trips to dealership, issue persists. Vehicle threw a âVSS faultâ and went into âlimp modeâ preventing me from driving over 40mph - was in the mountains, 60 miles from home. Serious safety issue, feel unsafe on the vehicle, no longer willing to ride.

Steering · reported Sep 14, 2024

Vehicle repeatedly goes in to limp mode for VSS faults related to steering codes. Dealers are unable to repair and report that many other of the same model have the same problem. Many other owners in the online community report the same issue with no fix in sight. The vehicle is essentially unusable and the manufacturer does not appear to have any intent to remedy the situation.
