  STEERING, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE

  NEAR THE END OF MY DAILY HOUR LONG COMMUTE HOME I WAS COMING UP TO A STOP SIGN, AS I WAS DECELERATING UP TO THE STOP SIGN, THE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON, THE STEERING SEIZE UP, THE ACCELERATOR FAILED TO FUNCTION, AND THE BRAKING WAS SLUGGISH. I WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO STEER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, PRESSED THE POWER BUTTON TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND THE CAR TURNED OFF. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AS NORMAL AND ALL SYSTEMS APPEARED TO FUNCTION AS IF NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE AND THEY INFORMED ME THE COMPUTER DID NOT REGISTER ANY FAULTS, ERRORS, OR ISSUES. THIS IS CONCERNING, BECAUSE IF THIS PROBLEM HAD OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND I WERE TO LOSE ACCELERATION AND STEERING CONTROL, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TYPE THIS REPORT. THE DEALER SERVICE TECHNICIANS ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE ISSUE BECAUSE IT WAS NOT RECORDED. *TR

  ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  WHILE DRIVING THE HIGHWAY TO MY HOME, THE BLIND SPOT AND CROSS TRAFFIC SENSORS FAULTED. THE WARNING MESSAGES CAME ON AND I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY INFORMED ME IT WAS A FAULTY BLIB MODULE AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. FOR A TWO MONTH OLD CAR, THERE SEEM TO BE AN ABNORMAL NUMBER OF FAULTY COMPONENTS. THIS COULD POSE A SAFETY HAZARD IF PEOPLE RELY ON THE BLIND SPOT AND CROSS TRAFFIC SENSORS TO ALERT THEM OF CLOSE CARS OR ON COMING CARS WHILE REVERSING. *TR

  ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65MPH, THE SYNC SYSTEM SCREEN WENT BLACK, AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES, THE SYSTEM CAME BACK UP. I WAS UTILIZING THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM AT THE TIME AND WAS FORCED TO STOP, RE-ENTER THE DETAILS OF THE LOCATION I WAS INTENDING TO VISIT. THE SYNC SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER JUST RESTART ITSELF WITHOUT WARNING A DRIVER. I AM CONCERNED THERE IS A MORE SEVERE PROBLEM WITH THE MAIN CONTROL SYSTEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE AS THREE OTHER ISSUES HAPPENED WITHIN A WEEK OF EACH OTHER. 1. BLIB MODULE (BLIND SPOT AND CROSS TRAFFIC SENSORS FAULTED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT) 2. SYNC SYSTEM REBOOTS ITSELF WHILE DRIVING AND UTILIZING NAVIGATION 3. LOW PRESSURE ERROR POPS UP, STEERING BECOMES IMPOSSIBLE, ACCELERATION DIES, AND BRAKING SLUGGISH. CAR REQUIRED SHUTDOWN AND RESTART TO RESOLVE. *TR
