Vehicle infotainment screen locks up/freezes constantly while operating the vehicle . This includes the back-up camera as well, making it unreliable and/or unusable. There are no warning lamps or messages, just a hard freeze that only gets resolved once vehicle is shut off and restarted. That fix is only temporary and has not resolved the issue long-term. The other issue is excessive hesitation when pressing the gas pedal. The car is reluctant to drive forward. Both of these issues are severe safety problems that should get resolved immediately. The dealer service department does not see this…
The Lane keeping assistance has failed multiple times when the car enters an intersection and the lines on the road are broken by a gap due to a turn.

The car does not allow for minor changes in the painted lines. Thereâs a…

When I went to change lanes on the highway, I went to look in the passenger side mirror to check for traffic. What I saw was my shirt. The mirrors have auto open and close. They malfunctioned and did not open,. This was a safety risk. I have an appointment with the service center at the dealership.
The brake pedal is designed in such a manner that the shaft/arm gets in the way of the pedal as you start pressing the pedal. As the pedal is pressed away from the driver, the shaft is setup in such a way that the driver's foot then hits the shaft and loses the ability to press the actual pedal. Given the shaft is a small metal bar rather than a flat grippy surface like the pedal, this creates unstable footing. It is very difficult to use and is quite unsafe. It is an issue in all cases when pressing the brake (i.e., it is not only for aggressive braking; it is always persistent). I have found…
