MY SISTER AND I HAVE THE SAME EXACT CAR JUST ONE YEAR APART AND THEY BOTH STALL WHEN COMING TO A STOP EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS AN AUTOMATIC. THE BRAKE LIGHT BLINKS, THE CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT BLINKS AND IS UNABLE TO BE USED, THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STAYS ON, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. IT HAS BEEN LIKE THIS FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW AND IVE TRIED TO TROUBLESHOOT MANY THINGS TO FIX IT, BUT NOTHING HAS WORKED. THE LIGHTS STAY ON CONSTANTLY MAKING IT UNABLE FOR ME TO USE MY CRUISE CONTROL AND THE CAR TO STALL WHEN COMING TO A STOP AT ANY SPEED. I ALSO KNOW SEVERAL OTHERS WITH THE SAME MODEL THAT HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND ALSO SEE VIDEOS OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE ON YOUTUBE AND THEM BEING UNSURE OF THE PROBLEM TO FIX IT.

Is 150 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2009 and 2026, roughly 9 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
