| Description of the problem | The vehicle almost stopped in the middle lane of interstate highway while driving at a speed of 60 plus mph. With heavy traffic around , it was very difficult to pull the vehicle safely on the shoulder. The vehicle received a soft ware update by the dealership about a month back per product improvement campaign number 953. It took about one month to get the defect fixed by the dealership . I narrowly escaped of getting run down under heavy traffic coming from behind and running on both sides of my vehicle. The consumer stated the vehicle does not drive as smoothly since it was repaired. The consumer is apprehensive about driving the vehicle. *js |
