FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
The fuel door does not stay open. It flaps around. This issue becomes problematic while attempting to refuel and insert the fuel nozzle while fighting with the fuel door. On numerous occasions, I was the wind forcing the fuel door closed while trying to insert the fuel nozzle and I depressed the trigger on accident, resulting in fuel spillage.

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
It has happened 3 times, every time I have been driving and an alert with flash on the dash that there is an object in the road and it will brake check me, but there isn't anything infront of the vehicle. One time it happened getting off the highway and 2 other times it has happened when I was in a residential area. 2 out of 3 times, a vehicle behind me had to swerve to the shoulder of the road, so they didn't rear end me. Second issue, the hybrid system is not working. The vehicle was parked and when I went to put it in drive, the alert popped up and I had to turn the car off and restart. Third issue, the lane assistance. While driving in the middle lane and going around a 20 or 30 degree right turn, the vehicle pulled me into the left lane, almost side swiping the vehicle next to me.

Brand new 2024 brakes squeaking. Cold starts, and now even when car has been running all day. When breaking the brakes squeak very loud. Called the dealer they said this is normal. Has not been inspected or reproduce the issue by the dealer. No warning lights appeared yet. We feel it might be a safety issue since it's a family suv brakes may fail.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, STRUCTURE:BODY:BUMPERS
The tow hitch cover came off at an unknown destination on the road. It was there when I left home and missing when I reached my destination that was about an hour away. This included some in-town and some highway driving. This occurred less than one month after I purchased the vehicle and I friend prompted me to submit this report, as they heard this is a common occurrence on the ‘23s and ‘24s and this is definitely a safety hazard, especially traveling at high rates of speed on the interstate, highway, and especially the toll roads I use that have speed limits of 75+ miles. (Texas). The dealership was not helpful, and it’s not something I want to file an insurance claim on to possibly increase the monthly premium.

STRUCTURE:BODY
The bumper cover that covers the hitch and is removable has fallen off of my car three times on the highway. I have only had the car for about four months and it is brand new. The first incident was when i had about 1500 miles on the vehicle, the second at 3200 miles, and now at 4800 miles. This is an obvious design flaw and a hazard to other drivers as it could hit them and cause an accident. I have had to order this part twice.
