WITHIN TWO WEEKS OF PURCHASE, AND WHILE DRIVING - THE VEHICLE HAD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE RELATED TO ITS HYBRID BATTERY. A WEEK AFTER IT BEING RETURNED, IT DEVELOPED AN "ENGINE MALFUNCTION" LIGHT. SHORTLY AFTER GETTING THE CAR BACK (AGAIN), THE VEHICLE'S "DRIVE MODE" WAS MALFUNCTIONING. THIS ALLOWS THE VEHICLE TO GO FROM ELECTRIC TO AWD. THE FAILURE TO GO INTO AWD IS A REAL DANGER BECAUSE THE VEHICLE CANNOT SAFELY HANDLE ANY ROADS WITH ANY DEGREE OF WATER ON THEM W/O AWD.

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.
