| Description of the problem | Update to my previous complaint: i leased this car on january 12, 2019. It is brand new. The car was having trouble starting again today and yesterday. I turned it on the normal way and it was fine in park, but when i switched to drive it shut off. The d started flashing (again) so i put it back in park, and the console told me to press the brake and press stop/start, which i did attempt but the brake was locked and this did not work. The red lightning bolt and check engine light both came on. The red lightning bolt warning light indicates a problem with the electronic throttle control. It also stalled and was hard to steer as usual now, though putting it in 4wd makes it a bit easier to control. I am now even more scared to operate this vehicle and feel like it is going to fall apart while i'm driving. |
