This makes the vehicle unsafe to drive, as it is impossible to monitor speed and other essential functions necessary for safe operation. 2.Battery Overheating During DC Fast Charging: T… Look up ODI 11612400 at NHTSA ↗ ODI 11721442While slowly turning into a parking space at approximately 1 mph (?) the vehicle unexpectedly accelerated.

This happened while drive was engaged and stopped at a red light. The car briefly lurched forward and the car engaged an emergency brake to prevent the car from rolling into the vehicle in front of me. This incident was unpredictable and resulted in an unexpected change to the drive mode I had selected which could have lead to a collision.

| Back Over Prevention: Automatic System Braking | 0 | 1ODI 11612728I have had two incidents with the automatic braking system occur in a short period of time. The Lyriq is not a car that I drive very often so when the incidents occurred in the last 2 of the 3 times of driving the car it makes me scared to drive the car again. The first incident occurred while driving at approximately 35 mph. The road I was on had 4 lanes with a turn lane in the middle dividing the 4 lanes with 2 lanes on each side of the turn lane. The road carries moderately heavy traffic as it has many businesses (fast food restaurants, st… Look up ODI 11612728 at NHTSA ↗ | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1ODI 11587209The automatic collision system braking is engaging when the vehicle is in reverse and while it is raining. This occurs multiple times while trying to back the vehicle up during rain. This is dangerous for the passengers since they are abruptly thrown backwards without warning. The vehicle must be placed in "park" and then "reverse" multiple times until the collision braking stops malfunctioning. Look up ODI 11587209 at NHTSA ↗ | 0 | — |
