Car showed ignition on when the car was turned off. same day while driving on highway car engine revved for no reason. also when someone got out of parked car it said no key detected but car was still turned on and key was right beside me.
This vehicle is has been on lease for 1 year and has less than 4000 miles on it. initially while attempting to start the vehicle that had been parked overnight it gave the following warnings: - keyless entry malfunction - charging system malfunction - vehicle overheating - battery malfunction the car would not shut off until i held the start/stop button in for roughly 20secs. the dealer service center took the car and told us the battery had a low charge, charged it and returned it. several weeks later while the vehicle was in motion with 2 adults and 2 children on a city street traveling at about 20mph it gave the following warnings: - keyless entry malfuction - charging system malfuction - vehicle overheating - battery malfunction - pull over to safety at this point the vehicle was still in motion and the stereo, hvac, and power steering cut out. i was able to pull the vehicle over but again had trouble shutting it off. i had to hold the start/stop button for 20-40secs. the car was towed to the dealer service center. we were told by the service center that a lot of 500 vehicles of this year and model had an engine harness defect that no recall had been issued for but they were aware of defect and had a fix for it. i feel i was lucky that i was only traveling 20mph when the power steering cut out. if i had been traveling highway speeds on a bend the situation could have been tragic and i had my children in the car. currently, based on what i've been told by the dealer service and sales managers there are potentially hundreds of other 2018 cx-9s which could experience this same malfunction while in motion.
