“The engine is malfunctioning. It is available for inspection. When you accelerate the vehicle, the engine goes into limp mode then it goes into neutral and you have to find a safe place on the side of the road to pull over shut it off and restart it. It's very very dangerous.”

“Passenger seat will not lock into place, even while driving or stationary causing concern as this becomes a safety issue.”
