When I drive in the winter time and apply the brakes on a slippery road the car doesn't want to stop no matter how many times I try to use the brakes. Instead, the brakes pop and click until my car slows down on its own. I ended up sliding literally in the middle of the street at a busy intersection. Other drivers were aware my car was having trouble stopping and allowed me to proceed. That happened in the 1st time in December 2017. The following year I had my brakes check and the service station claimed the couldn't find any thing wrong with them. I had my brakes serviced before the winter of 2018. My brakes still do the exact same thing all winter long on the slippery streets. Also I'm having trouble trying to turn the key in the ignition because it's locked. When I finally managed to get the car up and running a little while later it wants to stall. This just happened the last 2 days. I'm going to get that serviced asap. That day was November 23, 2019. This vehicle has several issues and it's only 3 yrs old. That's not a good sign.

My vechicle starte to cut out on me after 37000 miles. I was driving from jury duty in the afternoon in traffic and it just stalled out on me. The engine cut off. I was able to crank it again and moved over to the side of the highway. I waited 45 minutes. I did not turn the air condition on. It cranked and I went home. A week later it did the same thing but it would not crank again. I had to get it towed to a mechanic shop. He said it was the compressor. He replaced the compressor and I picked it up again and in a few days later it cut off on me and my family again. We took it back to the same mechanic and he said it was something wrong with the electrical box. He replaced it and it was running again.however in 2 days it turned off while driving again.this is a relatively new vehicle. It only has 38K miles on it. Now it will not drive. I am stuck with a car note and no car to drive.

Everything time I stop and park the car to do a short errand and then after getting back in the car, I put the key in the ignition and it won't turn. I have to wiggled the key in the steering wheel for at least five (5) minutes or more. It is happening more frequent and often. I am very concerned.

Bought the 2016 vehicle October 15, 2015. Right away noticed a problem with the automatic gear shift not moving smoothly from gear to gear. The brakes groaning/whining and the emergency brake loosening. Car drifting/pulling right on highways and left on streets. Rattling from under car carriage. Popping and squeaking on right front passenger door. The A/C straining and not cooling car cabin as it should and the A/C interior switch not engaging or staying engaged when pushed. Thumping/clicking sound heard when braking. After numerous complaints made the dealership verified all of my complaints but not in a timely manner. First complaint was acknowledged on October 28, 2015 but claimed there wasn't any abnormalities found. On December 8, 2015, March 16, 2016, April 22, 2016, August 17, 2016 and August 23, 2016 repairs were repeatedly made consisting of replacing gear shift knob, entire gear shift assembly, sanding rotors, replacing brake pads, replacing entire brake assembly and tightening emergency brake.
