The MPG is advertised at 19-26 and after 3,000 miles I am getting 15-19.
This vehicle shut down while driving. Initially it would not restart. When it did restart all the indicator lights were on in the dash. I got to a safe location and I shut it off. I opened and closed the driver's door. When I turned it back on it was back to normal. I had it towed to the dealer because I was concerned about driving it. They found nothing wrong. I am concerned about driving this vehicle anywhere. I feel it will happen again. It's just a matter of time.

While driving with speed control on the vehicle will show warning light in dash and say something is blocking front camera sensor. Causing mirrors to tint automatically xm radio to stop Bluetooth problems and no crude control. Nothing blocking camera have to stop and restart vehicle. Throttle problems intermittent not smooth. To much throttle causing it to shift hard at start downshifting is hard and can also do this in reverse. Have had this at a dealer once and bring back again. They adjusted the throttle body. Seemed to do nothing.
