Description of the problem | First,i received warning for "battery saver mode" on dashboard. Later in the day, i took car to dealership for a service visit and the car shut down right there. All lights went crazy and car put itself in neutral very violently. I am afraid of this car and what it may do if this were to happen at a higher speed. Once the car took over control, i could not shut it off, put it in gear, or anything else for that matter. Dealer says its simply a bad battery and i am very leery of the dealer's diagnosis at this point. |
