Warning sign comes up : blind spot assist inoperative. When the warning sign comes up the right and left blind spots in the mirror remain light up and also I am not able to signal to change lines. These happened already 3 times over past 3 months and lasts for hours while on the highway. I try to stop at the side of the highway, turn the car off and on still won't work for some time. I have taken videos of these happening.

After pulling out of my driveway and drive less than 1000 ft the car filled with smoke turned in flames and fire and then burnt to the ground. Mbz did an inspection and informed me there was no fault with the vehicle. They refuted and denied everything I told them and stated they had no evidence of anything I described. They refused to tell me how the fire started. They would show me the report, the fuse boxes appeared to be melted yet they said they were intact and did not cause the fire. So it must have been and act of god? the would not pay any medical bills nor replace the vehicle. It was on a city street, fire and police came

While at highway speeds vehicle braked unexpectedly due to what seems to be a malfunction in the front collision warning radar. This resulted in a multiple near miss collisions coming from the rear, for many vehicles on I5 near woodburn or during high traffic times. The vehicle suddenly braked causing me to swerve off the road. Other vehicles includes two immediately following, there was a vehicle 6-8 car lengths ahead traveling at the same rate of speed with no braking, both sides were clear of traffic, no damage done seeking dealer assistance to decipher exact cause. Vehicle continues to have all safety features automatically turned off from computer. Vehicle was traveling straight with no braking needed nor wanted.
