TAMARA RECALL - THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON DURING COLD WEATHER (UNDER 30 DEGREES), AND THE ISSUE WAS THAT THE ENGINE COOLANT WAS BELOW A SPECIFIED TEMPERATURE FOR A SPECIFIED AMOUNT OF TIME. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY DASH SAID THAT THE CAR WAS OVERHEATING. I DROVE A FEW MORE MILES AND STOPPED IN A PARKING LOT. AFTER WORK I DROVE IT HOME AND WATCHED THE TEMPERATURE, BUT IT DIDN'T GET HOT AGAIN. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES, AND ONCE THE PART WAS REPLACED, THE ISSUE DOES NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. I BELIEVE IF IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM, AND I BELIEVE THIS COULD BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE, IT SHOULD BE A RECALL. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE TO HELP DRIVERS BEFORE IT HAPPENS TO THEM.

S55 RECALL CONCERN: I FEEL COMPLETELY UNSAFE IN THIS VEHICLE!! I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN OCTOBER 2017 STARTING IN LATE NOVEMBER EARLY DECEMBER 2017 THE VEHICLE STARTED SHUTTING OFF BY ITSELF WHEN I AM DRIVING IT SHIFTS TO NEUTRAL BY ITSELF AND COMPLETELY DIES. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHEN I AM BRAKING OR ACCELERATING. THIS HAPPENS AT LEAST EVERY 3-6 MILES I DRIVE AND I HAVE TO DRIVE ALOT WORKING AN HOUR AWAY. THIS IS VERY SCARY ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE TURNING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND IT JUST STOPS. SOMETIMES IT GIVES WARNINGS BY LIGHTING UP RANDOM LIGHTS LIKE SLIPPERY ROAD, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AND SPUTTERS SO I CAN ANTICIPATE IT SINCE IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!!! I AM BEING TOLD THAT IT IS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT OVER, I USE FULL SYNTHETIC DONE BY THE DEALERSHIP, AND THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE FOR THE VEHICLE BUT TO ME THIS IS NO SAFETY FEATURE IF ANYTHING IT IS A DEATH TRAP WAITING TO HAPPEN. I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AND I AM AFRAID TO RIDE AROUND WITH MY CHILD IN IT NOT KNOWING WHAT WILL HAPPEN. IN FACT I GO OUT OF MY WAY TO GO AROUND INTERSECTIONS OR DANGEROUS EXPRESSWAYS BECAUSE I AM AFRAID IT WILL STOP WITH HER IN THE CAR. PLEASE HELP!
