Https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=10&v=gdjl1_rofhe please watch the youtube link above to clearly see what happened. I was driving on a road with a 40 mph speed limit. Fortunately nobody was in front of me for quite a while because this very easily could have resulted in a very dangerous accident.

Approaching driveway and suddenly the speedometer showed i was doing 90 mph and i knew this was incorrect as i was slowing down to make a turn off of a highway. Now the speedometer may work correctly for a few miles and then it shows that i am driving a speed above what is allowed or what i know is untrue. Took to a mechanic and he says the speedometer motor needs to be replaced. For past 3 years the check tire…

Cruise control acceleration button "stuck" down in acceleration "mode" and car continued to accelerate. I had to press the brake to disengage the cruise control. This button "sticks" or gets "stuck" in acceleration "mode" on cruise control and the only way i have found to disengage it is to tap the brakes and disengage the cruise control. *tr

Once again, driving on a busy highway my stabilitrac light came on and my engine was powered down. My vehicle is once again in the shop having the throttle bottle replaced. The first time this happened, the mechanics just cleaned the part, this time it is being replaced. When your vehicle powers down, you lose the ability to safely maneuver your car- potentially causing an accident. *tr

The throttle position sensor fails and causes the car to turn the stabilitrak and traction control off, and reducing the engine power. This is very dangerous while driving down the highway. The car will not go over 40 and the engine repeatedly revs up and down on its own. *tr
