| Description of the problem | The traction control on this vehicle will engage at random when turns are made. When this happens, the vehicle will lose power and it's momentum will cease. I believe this behavior caused an accident i was in which resulted in the total loss of the vehicle. I was making a dog leg turn merging into traffic, with the lost of momentum i was hit on the right rear. The traction control engaged the day before as well. This issues is reported by other individuals on various web boards. It was fortunate that there was no serious injury.*dt*dt*dt*jb*jb consumer stated vehicle was totaled.*jb*dt*jb*dt*jb |
