The vehicle came to a screeching stop with no visible reason for doing so. Three cars behind me also had to come to an abrupt and dangerous stop to avoid me. I pulled out of my driveway, began to drive, reached 10 mph, then came to a full brake, causing tires to screech. The speed of traffic behind me was approx 25mph.

This vehicle has alignment issues causing vibration at higher speeds and excessive tire wear. After multiple alignments and tire balances, nothing has resolved the issues. Dealers are not doing anything about issues. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request?

The front windshield in our vehicle is severely distorted and causes other vehicles and objects to appear to be in different positions when viewing objects greater than 30° from the center of the driver's perspective. This is a well-documented manufacturing issue with the early build Grand Wagoneers. There is a technical service bulletin with an overview of the problem (23-015-22). We brought our vehicle to an authorized dealer on [XXX]. The service technician could see the issue instantly as we were parked next to a stair railing that severely distorted when viewed through the windshield. He created a report and passed it on to Wagoneer customer care. Although this is not covered in our warranty, we are still working to have the issue resolved through the factory. Multiple people have reported this issue and the only remedy is to replace the original glass with the manufacturing defect. Wagoneer Customer service has acknowledged this and actually posted the technical service bulletin and helps in remediation. That night and dusk, this is a serious safety concern. The refraction of the oncoming car's headlights move the vehicles placement when viewed through the windshield. It can cause flickering and flashing distracting the driver. There are several other scenarios that would be dangerous with a distorted and misplaced object in the driver's field of view. Here are additional posts of the issue: [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
