I have been to the shop so many times since I bought this car. The first time out of nowhere it started smoking white smoke and overheated the engine and come to find out the tubing in the car had exploded. Then got everything fixed and now still having the same problem with overheating and white smoke but now a burning smell. It's something new every time. I found this response o. Your website with another person who has this car and this happened to mine as well: ' hoses to my cooling system all busted one after another with in 5 day we could see the week spot in the hose after thy busted,had the thermostat changed , it also blow my head gasket' this is also happened and I barely drive it. It's 5 miles down the street where I work with a 45mph max speed limit. I have pictures and videos as well but can't attach it

Arrived at home put my car in park and my key was stuck in the ignition and unable to shut my car off. Had to pull fuse to the computer and disconnect negative side of battery. Took it to a shop they advised no communication with shifter. Shop drilled out my old ignition lock cylinder and replaced with a new key lock cylinder. Seems to be working as of now after a $518.74 bill.

I have owned this car for less than a year and it has shut down while driving 4 times already. I have taken it to the dealer for repair they say they can not find anything wrong that they would have to be driving it when it shuts down. So this is how it happens I am on the highway driving and out of nowhere my entire car just shuts down and I am trying to coast to safety. Imagine that not being a safety issue and that this car has not been recalled yet. Recently I have been speaking with another person who owns the same exact car and he told me that his car has shut down just like that on several occasions. So if this is happening to me and another random person that I am speaking with I am wondering why this car is not being recalled. I am afraid that I am going to die in that car how safe can driving on a highway and have your car suddently shut down with cars flying past you at 70 or 80 miles an hours be. Please look into this I believe that there should be a recall on this car. I see below that you are asking for specific dates that this has happened I do not know those exact dates so I will pick a date.

The car struggles to accelerate and can barely go over 40 MPH. When pressing on the gas pedal the gar shakes and stutters uncontrollably and the car randomly stutters while driving on the road. The car has terrible fuel economy and literally your foot can have the gas pedal to the floor and you can barely reach over 30 MPH, the issue progresses and gets worse with time. The car is barely drivable and places the driver at risk of being run off the road.
