SENSOR ON MY HANDLE AND THE KEY QUIT WORKING OVER THIS PAST YEAR MY CAR HAS BEEN AT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR DAYS AND WEEKS AT A TIME FOR THE SAME ISSUE DEALERSHIP HAS CHECK ALL SETTING THEY HAVE CHANGED THE BATTER THREE TIMES IN THE CAR AND TWICE IN THEY HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY IN THE REMOTE , I'M NOW TOLD THAT THEY JUST CHANGED THE DOOR HANDLE AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT, AND WAS ASKED TO PICK UP THE CAR , I STRESSED THAT I WILL BE OUT OF WARRANTY AND I DON'T WANT TO HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM HEN ITS EXPIRED OR TRANSFER OR SELL TO SOMEONE ELSE TO INHERIT THIS ISSUE. PLEASE NOTE ,THE PUSH BUTTON ON THE HANDLE DO NOT WORK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, AND THE PUSH BUTTON DO NOT WORK ON THE HANDLE ON THE DRIVER SIDE THIS WOULD HAPPEN RANDOMLY EACH TIME I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR QX50 TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE ATTENTION I WAS TOLD THEY WILL NEED TO SEE THE ISSUE SO I PROVIDED THEM WITH THE VIDEO , THIS LAST TIME THEY SEEN IT THEMSELVES AND DECIDED TO HOLD ONTO THE FOR FURTHER RESEARCH , THIS IS WHEN I WAS ASKED TO PICK UP THE CAR IN ITS CONDITION. THEY CANNOT SAY WHY HANDLE SENSOR AND LOCK QUIT WORKING EVEN AFTER RUNNING DIAGNOSTICS. MY GUESS IS THAT SINCE BOTH SIDES AREN'T WORKING, IT IS UNLIKELY THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE SENSOR AS BOTH SIDES WOULD HAVE HAD TO FAIL AT THE SAME TIME EACH TIME. *LN*JB

THE CAR DRIFTS ALL OVER THE HIGHWAY AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT IS AS IF I AM ALWAYS FIGHTING A STRONG WIND. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING AND DANGEROUS. SEEMS LIKE ANYTHING OVER 60MPH IS VERY CHALLENGING TO KEEP BETWEEN THE LINES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON 2/01/2020 AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR THESE SPORTS SUV'S. THEY ALL DO IT. VERY DISCOURAGING. THIS WAS NOTICED ABOUT 10,000 MILES AGO AND SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. THE CAR HAS 43,000 NOW

I WAS DRIVING ON THE GARDEN STATE PARKWAY NORTHBOUND ON THE NEW YORK EXTENSION IN THE EVENING OF MARCH 24TH AT APPROXIMATELY 7:40 PM AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH WHEN OUT OF NOWHERE MY MOON ROOF EXPLODED. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO OVERPASS REMOTELY NEAR WHERE THIS OCCURRED. THERE WAS NO OTHER DAMAGE ON THE CAR FORWARD OF THE MOON ROOF AND NO DAMAGE PAST IT ASIDE FROM SCRATCHING CAUSED BY GLASS ON THE ROOF AND REAR SPOILER. THERE WAS NO OBJECT THAT IMPACTED THE VEHICLE IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. BASED ON THE ATTACHED PHOTOS THE GLASS IS PROTRUDING FROM THE ROOF PANEL AS IF IT EXPLODED OUTWARD. THERE IS GLASS RESIDUE ON THE MOON ROOF COVER WHICH INDICATES THAT THE COVER WAS CLOSED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. FURTHERMORE IF THE COVER WASN'T IN PLACE THE GLASS WOULD HAVE RAINED DOWN INTO THE CABIN AND COULD HAVE HAD SIGNIFICANTLY INJURED MYSELF.
