My rear veiw camera only works when it wants to. It is either upside down and no use for backing up or black screen with no working message. I see other years are being recalled for that same reason.

On two occasions i was on my way to church when the brake pedal went completely to the floor with no braking effect. i pumped the brake peddle several times and then in both instances braking was reestablished. These instances happened about a month and a half apart.

Stepped on brake, made noise and pedal went all the way to to the floor and would not stop almost hitting car in front of me.
While driving, in city traffic, 'low oil pressure' warning light came on and car stalled. Had to put car into neutral and restart. Pulled into a parking lot to check oil levels and it was fine.
Doors fail to latch, with several reports indicating that the 'door ajar' warning light on the dash appeared and cabin lights stays on while driving and stays on after closing doors! The only way to turn them off is to unplug battery! This is the 3rd time that I have been repairing different doors latch and I am surprised why car safety recall has not been issued yet on these models. It's very expensive to repair and it's a causing a major safety issue when driving night time with cabin light on and ajar warning system is off!!!! Please note that same issue occurs every year with more than one door (2014/2015/2016/2017)
