Description of the problem | I have had repeated electrical issues with this car. It started with the radio shutting on & off on its own. Then the stabilitrack started flashing on. The first few times that was all it was, but in the fall of 2017, that sensor would come on & my brakes & steering were affected. In addition, the car will have moments where it blanks out just briefly while driving, usually noticed by the radio going off & on. I have also had the key get locked in the ignition. Yesterday, 6/17/18, i went to start my car in a parking lot & several sensors came up, battery charging system, stabilitrack, & power steering. Car would not start, i kept shutting off the radio, & it would come back on. Car rested for 2 hours & then started again. Once driving, the steering was not right. Took a quarter of a mile of driving before the steering wheel did not pull 1/4 of the way to the left on its own. I have taken this car into the dealer with all of these complaints except the incident yesterday. Their solution has been new battery and new battery cables-twice. In the fall of 2017, i mentioned seeing similar issues online & they dismissed it. I just called about the 6/17/18 issue & i am getting the run-around from them. |
