I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE A WEEK AGO, I USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHICH I USE WHEN I PARK IN MY DRIVEWAY BECAUSE IT'S SLANTED. WELL AFTER THE FIRST TIME I DISENGAGED IT WENT TO DRIVE AND HEARD A WEIRD NOISE WHEN COMING TO A STOP WHICH ONLY GOT WORSE. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER TO FIND OUT THAT THE E-BRAKE NEVER FULLY DISENGAGED ON THE RIGHT SIDE ONLY. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY REPLACED BUT NOW I'M NOT COMFORTABLE USING THE E BRAKE AT ALL OUT OF FEAR IT WILL DESTROY ANOTHER ASSEMBLY. ALSO SINCE I GOT IT BACK I HAVE NOTICED WEIRD ELECTRICAL ISSUES LIKE ALL MY 12V SOCKETS ARE OUT OR I COME TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT 2 CAR LENGTHS AWAY AND ALL MY BLIND SPOT SENSORS GO OFF FOR LIKE 30 SECONDS THEN STOP.

pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the
