ABS, ACSM CRASH SAFETY CONTROL MODULE, EMERGENCY BRAKE, ACC CRUISE CONTROL, MID LEVEL AND SPORT MODE INOPERABLE ONLY FUNCTIONS IN GREEN MODE WITH SEVERE LIMITATIONS THAN FROM BEFORE THIS OCCURRED. IGNITION, ACCELERATION, TOP SPEED... ALL OF THESE ARE AFFECTED AND MY CONCERN IS NOT ONLY THE SOFTWARE AND THE ACSM BUT BECAUSE THE DRIVE HAS CHANGED SIGNIFICANTLY I BELIEVE IT COULD BE MORE OF A PROBLEM THAN A SOFTWARE UPDATE AND THE ACSM. I WAS TRAVELING/IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET AT 45MPH IN GREEN MODE AND ACC ACTIVATED. I LIVE IN ARKANSAS, THE STREETS ARE WINDING CURVY ROADS JUST LIKE I PREFER MY ASPHALT AND DRIVE TO BE HOWEVER I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING ELSE THAT HAS CAUSED THIS MUCH CONCERN AND I HAVE NOT "DUKES OF HAZARD" MY MINI. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OR RECEIVED ANY DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
