Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 14 of 14, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Visible oil leak or staining in rear differential is consistent with a prior recall in 2016-2016 model years as described in this document This is a 2021 model year vehicle, purchased brand new in January 27, 2021, with less than 10,000 miles. This document indicates that "If the vehicle is operated with an insufficient amount of oil in the rear differential, the differential may seize and cause a loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash."
Vehicle will not hold 6th gear while in cruise control. Vehicle will suddenly down shift to 5th and sometimes 4th. This makes the vehicle surge forward abruptly.
Upon acceleration vehicle will have delayed engagement, up to and including a near stall or stuttering. Has LED to several near misses (x2). The tss system takes over and does it's thing versus allowing the driver to drive the vehicle for the conditions. Example would be automatic application of brakes due to deer in road causing loss of control on an icy road way. Driver released gas pedal and was coasting as deer was crossing. Due to brakes being automatically applied, vehicle began to slide, deer became spooked and stopped crossing, vehicle ended up partially in the ditch. After multiple occurrences (5+ memorable), driver has lost all faith in the safety and reliability of this vehicle and does not transport passengers as they fear for the passenger's safety. Driver only utilizes vehicle because it is their last and only means of transport.
