 Description of the problemI bought this car in 2015 with low mileage and the eco button didnt was used for what they explained because gas was burning alot faster until i got over 50,000 miles. When going up a hill it makes a weird nose like the motor is about to go out with a loud rattling noise and its about to make a stop. When its raining and you hit the brakes it want completely stop, you have to hit your brakes twice and you feel this sound like a spring or something skipping ove the fuction for it to make a complete stop and this will cause a major accident. It has happened alot on the highway and interstate . Once u go over 65 mph the car shakes with sounds of something loose in the steering and other places. The locks on the doors aren't safe due to doors can be opened even if you lock them on this standard vehicle ex. If a bigger size person or basically an average adult with certain clothing on. Was in this vehicle there clothing possibly could get caught in the latch even though its locked the door could still pop open due to easy acsss of an safely locked door.. You have to make sure to keep the doors on a safe lock in the back within the hazard of children and what i mean is if something was to happen hazardous the kid want be able to get unless someone open it from the outside in a panic situation because the doors unlock by pulling the latch when you use the turn key lock for kids. Maintenance lights comes on for no reason and stay on if you fix the problem especially the tire pressure light. This been going on every since i went over 50,000 miles now im at 120,000 i tried talking to the company about it because they who i purchased it from to give back before i actually started driven it but they wouldnt take it back and no other dealers either before all the problems started. The car was sold at more than what it was worth...
