I just purchased my CX-5 earlier this month. After a bit over a week of having it I had quiet a scare.
I was driving to work doing about 55mph. I started to slow down for a major traffic light that has cross traffic doing 60plus mph.
The closer I got to the intersection the more I noticed something wasn't quiet right. By 20mph or so I felt as though the CX-5 was
still pulling me forward and the slower I got the more apparent that the motor was still pulling me forward. The engine wasn't revving
and the rpms seemed around 1k. I started applying more brake to wear I was basically pressing the brakes down as hard as I could.
The CX-5 finally stopped about 1ft from cross traffic and when it did the engine died.
I had to put it back into park and restart the engine but the car drove fine. I called the dealership and they had it towed in but could not
find any problems. I hate having a brand new car that I cannot trust. Does anyone have any ideas what happened?
Thanks,
