Filings are rising, 75 in the last three years against 28 in the three before. For a vehicle this age that usually points to a wear-related failure owners are hitting now.

In owners' own words
One month ago Vehicle unexpectedly slowed down while driving on city street, coming to a full break. Had to pull over and restart car, which solved the problem. Did not have warning signs prior. Havenât had problems with car since this incident. Has not been reproduced/inspected by dealers or other parties. Safety issue: risk for rear end collision Forward collision avoidance
On several occassions, while driving 35 MPH around a very gentle, sweeping curve, without reason or cause, the "BRAKE" warning light displays on the dashboard, a beeping warning alarm will sound, and the steering wheel will "jiggle" to the left and right. Forward collision avoidance
Vehicle has a delayed response to accelerate as if the transmission doesnât want to shift or missing the next up shift. Starting from a stop position you have to press further down on the accelerator to get the vehicle to move which could lead you to accident either hit someone in front of you cause the vehicle lurched forward or possibly hit from the side or rear cause the vehicle wonât accelerate Power train
