While slowing to a stop on a slight incline (an interstate off-ramp), when almost stopped, the car started bucking as if the brake pedal was being slammed on, then released, slammed on again, then released, and repeated for maybe 2 seconds. I quickly hit the "P" (Park) button to take it out of gear and it stopped. No warning lights or anything came on and it drove perfectly fine afterwards. It felt just like the emergency braking and the car thinks you're going to hit something. It was very strong and jarring. Happened a 2nd time on April 4 in the same circumstances - driving downhill on a highway off-ramp and stopping at red light at the end of the ramp.

On a separate occasion the contact became aware the bottom of the window was fractured. The contact then taped the door on the bottom of the window. The system function error message was displayed. On a separate occasion, the contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the rearview camera sporadically failed to respond. The system function error message was displayed. The contact then turned off the vehicle shifted the vehicle into reverse and the vehicle started working properly. On a separate occasion, the contact depressed the brake pedal and the vehicle failed to respond. The local dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not repaired because the VIN was not under recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure.

Since December 18, 2024 I have had this happen 5 times. I come to a complete stop and have my foot on the brake. The car will then hop four-five times (like the sensation of shifting in manual with a cluch and you don-??t shift correctly and the car will hop). I am not sure why this is happening. I took it to the dealer and they haven-??t experienced the issue. This doesn-??t happen at every full stop either.
