Complaint Summary
ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
Owner Narrative
ANY DAY, ANY WEATHER, ANY ROAD CONDITIONS. THE ROAD COULD BE AS DRY AS A BONE. WHEN I DRIVE AROUND A CURVE (IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I'M DRIVING 45 MPH, OR 15 MPH), THE BREAK PEDAL WILL ENGAGE ON IT'S OWN, THE STEERING WHEEL WILL LOCK, AND A BEEPING ALARM WILL GO OFF. I HAVE NO CONTROL OF THE VAN. IT WILL PUT ME INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. EVERYDAY. EVERYDAY. ANY TIME I DRIVE THIS VAN. MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY FOR THE LAST 15 MONTHS. LOTS OF $, AND LOTS OF TRIPS TO DEALER AND CAR REPAIR SHOPS. CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM, BUT IT'S A MAJOR PROBLEM. WE TRIED NEW TIRES, CHANGING WHEEL SENSORS, NEW BRAKES, ADDING FLUID TO STEERING WHEEL COLUMN, NEW AXELS... AND THE LIST GOES ON. NOTHING FIXES THE PROBLEM. I'VE READ A LOT OF SIMILAR STORIES ON THE INTERNET. LOTS PF PEOPLE, SAME PROBLEM, AND NOTHING IS FIXING THE PROBLEM ON ANYONE'S VAN. THERE ISN'T A SOLUTION TO A MAJOR PROBLEM.
