| Description of the problem | On cold mornings while parked, the brake will not depress and the car will not start. After multiple attempts or after the car warms up, it will start. This has happened on multiple occasions. On christmas morning after finally getting the car to start, the steering wheel locked up while i was driving on the highway (65 mph) on a straightaway. It happened twice that day. I was told until they can duplicate it, they cannot fix it. I do not feel safe in this vehicle. |
