Lost all power while driving on highway on friday of memorial day weekend. Lost brakes and steering too. Luckily was able to coast to a stop on the shoulder. Tried to restart multiple times, and starter just whirred over and over and over. I couldn't even do anything to stop it from attempting to start. It would ultimately give up. Roadside assistance sent a tow. The next day at the dealership it started, but it's…

I have had this issue occur a few times on the highway. The speeds are generally between 40-60 mph. When i put my foot on the brake, it is as though it is locked or frozen. Each time it has begun to work after a few times releasing my foot from the brake, but it is worrisome. I became more worried when i noticed that a couple of other people have reported the same issue. It certainly does not happen all the time,…
