I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER 2014. WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 15 AT APPROXIMATELY 70MPH ALL A SUDDEN I HAD NO MORE POWER I COULD NOT ACCELERATE, WHEN I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOPPED PUT IT IN PARK AND PUT IT BACK IN DRIVE AND IT WENT. SO I CONTINUED ON MY TRIP HOWEVER, ABOUT 50 MINUTES INTO MY TRIP NOW ON INTERSTATE 215 THAT SAME THING HAPPENED THIS TIME WHEN I PULLED OVER JUST PUTTING IT I PARK AND BACK IN DRIVE IT DIDN'T WORK I HAD TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF START IT AND THEN IT WORKED. I HAD TO TURN AROUND AND CANCEL THE TRIP AS I DIDN'T WANT TO BE STRANDED. I'M NOT SURE IF ITS THE TRANSMISSION OR WHAT. *TR

BRAND NEW VEHICLE AND RECEIVED A TWENTY-SIX INCH LONG GLASS BREAK ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD FROM A SMALL TINY ROCK. THE BREAK BEGINS AT THE STRUCTURE OF THE WINDSHIELD FRAME AND EXTENDS BEYOND. THIS IS THE FIRST VEHICLE I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED TO RECEIVE ANY BREAK IN THE GLASS FROM A TINY ROCK ALONG WITH THE NEED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE WINDSHIELD. FURTHERMORE, DAYS LATER ANOTHER TINY ROCK HIT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD IN THE SAME AREA AND CREATED ONCE AGAIN ANOTHER BREAK BUT A CHIP INSTEAD. *TR
