UNKNOWN I had the lane assist feature on and was taking the second lane from right to turn off to exit when the alarm went off, the wheel turned itself and it started braking. There was nothing where it was trying to avoid and actually almost had me run into another by turning me left back onto the freeway while trying to stop. It-??s never happened to me before and I take that way regularly.

On two occasion vehicle abruptly shuts down leaving me with no control of vehicle. 1st incident, i was turning corner when car made a loud screeching noise and completely shut down, i had no control over breaks or steering. Car sat for several hours before i could start it up, i did attempt to drive it down the street. I called to have vehicle looked at by dealership. They were unable to duplicate what happened. I received car back drove it for 2 weeks and then same thing happened, this time I was on a busy road when it shut down making loud screeching noise. I let vehicle roll while i struggled to pull over. I had no control over vehicle something is triggering vehicle to shut down. I am very concerned this will continue happening and it could result in a serious injury or fatality. Dealership as of today has no resolution to this problem, they still have my vehicle in their shop.
