What owners wrote

“Screen wont turn on, it just stays black, sometimes it will start to work sometimes it doesnt without the car being turned off and turned back on. Apple and android play dont work always, it just randomly decides to work sometimes”

“Engine start/stop feature is not working properly and it nearly caused a few accidents. I am getting rid of this car and going to purchase a Toyota Sienna. Android Auto doesn't work either which is a known issue as well and it is a basic safety feature to keep driver's attention on the road and not on their phones.”

“The screen goes black, doesn't turn on, or it stalls out and will not let you do anything and has a hard time connecting to phones at all”

Should you keep driving it?

This page can't tell you that. 0 of 25 reports involved a crash and 1 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.

File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation.
