SERVICE BRAKES, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
ON JULY 3, 2015 WHEN AT FIRST MY CAR WOULDN'T START, I ASKED SOMEONE TO LOOK AT MY CAR AND IT WAS NOTICED THAT MY BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WAS VERY LOW JUST TO THE POINT OF EMPTY. I WAS VERY CONCERN BECAUSE AT NO POINT PRIOR TO THIS DISCOVERY, THE "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT DID NOT FLASH OR APPEAR ON TO INFORM ME TO THIS ISSUE! I CALLED AUTO DEALER AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR ROUTINE OIL/MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND REQUESTED THAT THIS MATTER BE RESEARCHED AS TO WHY NO "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT WORKED; TO ALSO FLUSH THE BRAKE SYSTEM TO CHECK FOR AIR IN THE HOSE ETC...; HOWEVER VERY DISAPPOINTMENT WITH AUTO SERVICE REPLY: I WAS BASICALLY TOLD THAT THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WAS NOT LOW ENOUGH FOR THE "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT TO ACTIVATED; HOWEVER WHEN THE CAR EVENTUALLY STARTED; THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY NOISY AND ONCE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL FILLED, THE NOISE STOPPED. I BELIEVE THAT DUE TO THE "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT NOT BEING ACTIVATED WAS A GREAT SAFETY RISK TO MYSELF AS WELL AS OTHERS.

POWER TRAIN
CAR DOES NOT ENGAGE IN GEAR WHEN FIRST STARTED AND PLACED IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. IT REMAINS IN NEUTRAL (EVEN THOUGH THE SHIFT LEVER IS IN DRIVE OR REVERSE POSITION), THEN GRADUALLY SLIDES INTO GEAR. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC FROM CURBSIDE, PARKED POSITION. THE CAR DOES NOT GO WHEN ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED. IT IS HARD TO TIME WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WILL ENGAGE AND THE CAR WILL GO. YOU MIGHT GET LUCKY AND ENTER THE STREAM OF TRAFFIC SAFELY OR GET HIT BECAUSE THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE AS EXPECTED. DEALER CANNOT DUPLICATE PROBLEM BUT EACH TIME I GET IT BACK IT DOES IT AGAIN.

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE DRIVING WEST ON HIGHWAY 50 AT 65 MPH AT APPROXIMATELY 7 PM, I TURNED OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL AND THE MOTOR STOPPED AT THE SAME TIME. THE CAR IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN AND I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE MOTOR, WHICH WAS IMPOSSIBLE WITH THE CAR IN GEAR (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION). THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS WERE THEN TURNED ON AS THE CARS BEHIND WERE HONKING THEIR HORNS AND OTHER CARS WERE PASSING RIGHT AND LEFT. WE WERE IN THE SECOND LANE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS, ALSO ON, OF COURSE. I TRIED STARTING THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND THAT DIDN'T WORK. WHEN WE CAME TO A FULL STOP, I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND STARTED THE CAR. EVERYTHING WENT WELL AFTER THAT. *TR
