DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION TWICE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON 2 DAYS AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR HAD IT SERVICED ABD THE EXACT SAME ISSUES ARE BACK CAR WILL NOT DRIVE

SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY

WHILE DRIVING DURING MORNING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC APPROXIMATELY 0645, THE VEHICLE BECAME SLUGGISH AND EVENTUALLY BEGAN SHAKE VIGOROUSLY. I WAS IN THE PASSING LANE WITH VEHICLES DRIVING AT AT SPEEDS UP TO APPROXIMATELY 65 TO 80 MPH. THE DRIVE TRAIN ERROR CAME ON AND INDICATED 'DRIVE MODERATELY.' GIVEN THAT I WAS 3 MILES FROM ENTERING THE MONITOR MERRIMACK MEMORIAL BRIDGE TUNNEL I HAD TO MAKE THE DECISION TO STOP IN THE PAST LANE OR COAST TO THE CENTER LANE BETWEEN AND ON RAMP AND TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC WHIZZING PAST. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT GO ANY FURTHER SO I PLACED IT IN NEUTRAL TO GET TO THE SAFEST POSSIBLE SCENARIO (BETWEEN THE TRAFFIC AN ON RAMP).

LEFT BRAKE LAMP MALFUNCTION. CAR HAS LESS THAN 40,000 MILES AND IN PERFECT CONDITION.

BRAKES WERE UNRESPONSIVE WHEN TRYING TO SLOW FROM 35 MPH FOR STOP SIGN. COULD ONLY DEPRESS BRAKE PEDAL ABOUT A HALF-INCH, CAR ESSENTIALLY COASTED TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION CAUSING A NEAR MISS. CAR STARTED TO SHUDDER VIOLENTLY BEFORE COMING TO A STOP. THIS WAS THE FIRST OF 2 SERIOUS BRAKE FAILURES FOR THIS CAR.

AFTER EXITING HIGHWAY ONTO OFFRAMP, I APPLIED BRAKES WHICH DID NOT SLOW CAR SIGNIFICANTLY, REAPPLIED BRAKE HARD AND AGAIN CAR CAR WOULD NOT SLOW ADEQUATELY. BRAKING POWER SEEM TO BE APPROX 10% OF NORMAL. CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE AND ENGINE REVVED AS CAR FINALLY STOPPED IN MIDDLE OF INTERSECTION, NEAR MISS VS ONCOMING TRAFFIC.
