Juke

  • miles
I bought this car LATE 2019, from a used dealership. I WAS ON THE FREEWAY ON MY WAY BACK FROM A 1 1/2 HR DRIVE. AND THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED ACCELERATING.! I WOULD PUSH DOWN ON THE GAS PETAL AND NOTHING. FREEWAY WITH TRAFFIC. IT WAS SO SCARY! THE CARS BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME! I MANAGED TO PUT ON MY HAZARDS LIGHTS ON AND PULLED OVER. THEN WAITED A WHILE, AND THEN TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT WORKED. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. AN SO ON UNTIL I MADE IT BACK HOME, MY 1 HOUR DRIVE TURN INTO 3HRS BECAUSE I KEPT PULLING OVER., UNTIL I GOT INTO THE NEAREST TOWN TO A AUTOZONE TO CHECK IT. BECAUSE THE ENGINE LIGHT TURN ON, THEY WERE ABLE TO GIVE ME SOME CODES REGARDING THE ISSUE. APPARENTLY IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE -??POWER TRAIN SYSTEM. CVT. TORQUE CONVERTER. IM NOT TO SURE WHAT IS THAT. IT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY, AND I WAS TERRIFIED! ITS ALSO IMPORTANT TO MENTION THAT JUST ONE MONTH AGO I PAYED AROUND $700 TO FIX THE SUSPENSION, AND CV JOINTS, NOT SURE THE NAME OF THE PROBLEM IT HAD. BUT IT WAS SOMETHING THAT KEPT EATING MY TIRES OUT.! I KEPT BUYING NEW AND USED TIRES, I EVEN TOOK IT TO GET IT ALIGNED. BUT IT KEPT EATING MY TIRES UP, THEN IN A TIRESHOP THEY TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO A MECHANIC BECAUSE IT SEEM THAT SOMETHING WAS VERY BAD. BECAUSE THE TIRES THEY WOULDN'T LAST, I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND HE SAID THAT I WAS IN DANGER BECAUSE THE CV JOINTS (I THINK THAT IS WHAT HE SAID) WERE ALMOST ABOUT TO FALL OFF.! BECAUSE THEY WERE DAMAGED AND THATS WAS ANOTHER ISSUE I HAD WITH THIS CAR. -??THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT KEEPS TURNING ON AND OFF, EVEN WHEN IT DOESN'T NEEDS AIR. -??AND THE TRACTION LIGHT TURNS ON LIKE IN A FLASHING WAY, AND THE CAR MOVES AND GETS OUT OF CONTROL SIDE TO SIDE. IT SEEMS LIKE THE CAR IS POSSES OR SOMETHING IT DOES HIS OWN THING IT GET OUT OF MY CONTROL. I JUST STOPPED DRIVING FOR NOW. I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT! WHAT CAN I DO?
