The lane keeping assistant is glitchy. When driving with lane keeping assistant turned on if I pass a turning lane the car tends to want to veer of into the turning lane. The biggest problem is that it takes a really firm tug on the wheel to actually stay in the correct lane and has caused me to over correct a few times veering slightly into the opposite lane. This has happened multiple times.
The car wouldn’t turn then it went past the lane into the wall at 60 all pass airbags deployed
Steering feels weird and has over corrected. Sometimes sticky and wandering. Car has 25 miles on it. Odd steering feedback . I am very concerned about the safety of a car I just paid 60K for.
I was driving on the freeway my car alerted me to hit the break as there was someone in front of me breaked. I hit my break and my airbags went off. There was no damage to the car in front of me at all that it felt unnecessary for an air bag to go off. my windshield cracked and airbags under my feet and front went off.
The week of February 26, 2023 I was sitting at the traffic light and when I went to press the gas the car wouldn't move and it shut off. So it appears that the auto start stop did not re-engage. I had to put on my blinkers so that traffic could go around me. I pressed some buttons and it finally started up after a minute or so. Pretty alarming considering that I only had the car for 2 months and it's a brand new 2023. Also, on 3/6 I went to start my car and it wouldn't start. It asked me to place my key fob on the start stop button. Then the car started. I took it to the dealer and they can't find anything wrong and that's even more scarier. Also, the car seems to gas up when it's in park and I have my foot on the brake but no one can explain what's going on with my brand new car.
While driving in a straight line or in turns where the steering wheel stays in the same position for more than a few seconds; the steering wheel sticks at times. As mentioned previously, it happens when I don't make corrections for a few seconds. It is a slight stick but is noticeable. It requires a more than normal/reasonable amount of pressure to make the steering wheel unstuck. This has led to some over-corrections. The problem seems happens at various speeds but I find more noticeable between 40 to 70 MPH. Lane Keep Assist is turned OFF.
While driving at about 60 mi/hr my car veered suddenly to the right and the power steering seemed to not work. The steering required vigorous correcting to maintain vehicle control.This continued for several minutes and it felt like the power steering was not working.when I finally stopped the car in a parking area I got out and checked the tires. Originally It had felt like one of my tires going flat. I turned off the engine and when my tire were checked they were fine.This happened on 1/25/23. When I restarted my car it ran normally after that. On 1/27/23 I took my car for inspection to a dealership for inspection. They could not identify any problem and my car was ok since 1/25.Nothing was fixed but I stressed that they begin recording my initial and any future complaints.
Steering feels stuck at higher speeds highways speeds 60+ Is making it dangerous to drive the vehicle

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
