The stability control system frequently accelerates when braking on a manhole cover or a major pothole. the acceleration is hard and could easily cause the driver to rear-end the car in front. i'm aware of the issue and brake fully before such an obstacle if there is a stopped car in front, but i warn every other person who drives my vehicle because of the seriousness of the issue.
The display that shows gas gauge, mph, etc. has gone blank. it is a hazard. there needs to be a recall on this.
