What owners report

  • The electric motor was leaking coolant and needs to be replaced. I have read countless accounts that this is a known issue with this car.

    filed May 2, 2023

  • The main electric drive motor will start leaking coolant which then damages the motor and even electronics. Well known issue and makes the vehicle unsafe and isn't a matter of "if" but "when" the seals will go bad and this is on our car that has less than 40k miles on the odometer.
