My husband was killed in an accident involving this vehicle. It says in the accident report that the BCM was unresponsive as well as another computer system and the wipers were on in dry weather. I believe a defect contributed to the accident. My husband was traveling with the right of way on a motorcycle when the sedan left turned in front of him. I will give you more information when I receive some documents from other family members. Thank you
