2019 Mini Cooper

THIS IS SECOND INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED WITH BRAND NEW MINI COOPER 2019 WITH SAME EXACT ISSUE THAT AGAIN ALMOST CAUSED A NEAR FATAL ACCIDENT. WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, AT HIGHWAY SPEED THE CAR PRECIPITOUSLY MALFUNCTIONED AND CAR LOCKED UP AND WOULD ALLOW ME TO MAINTAIN SPEED- NOR ACCELERATE. I WAS UNABLE TO MAINTAIN SPEED OF THE CAR THEREFORE STARTED TO LOSE SPEED AND DECELERATE. THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME COULD NOT TELL THAT I WAS SUDDENLY LOSING SPEED AND I WAS ALMOST INVOLVING A NEAR FATAL COLLISION AGAIN. I HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY FOR ABOUT 5 -10 MINUTES PRIOR TO THIS PRECIPITOUSLY OCCURRING. THIS WAS THE SAME SITUATION I EXPERIENCED WITH A BRAND NEW MINI COOPER 2019 MODEL A WEEK EARLIER. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY NOTED THAT THE CRANK SHAFT SPEED PULSE GENERATOR SENSOR WAS NO GOOD AND HAD MALFUNCTIONED. AS THIS IS A REPEAT ISSUE AND VERY SERIOUS AS IT ALMOST CAUSED 2 NEAR FATAL INCIDENTS, I AM CONCERNED THAT THE MAKER OF THE VEHICLE IS NOT DOING THEIR DUE DILIGENCE TO ENSURE THAT OTHER 2019 MODELS ARE SAFE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD OTHER MINI MODELS WERE HAS EXPERIENCED SAME MALFUNCTION. THIS INCIDENT AND THE OTHER BOTH OCCURRED AT HIGHWAY SPEED WHICH CREATES A VERY DANGEROUS SET UP AFTER THE VEHICLES HAD BEEN DRIVEN FOR A FEW MILES ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN WET CONDITIONS.

THIS IS A BRAND MODEL AND BRAND NEW CAR THAT I HAD JUST PURCHASED AND WAS DRIVING HOME FROM BUYING IT- I HAD NOT EVEN OWNED FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS. WHILE ON MY WAY HOME VEHICLE MALFUNCTIONED AND HAD NEAR FATAL COLLISION. WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY - AT HIGHWAY SPEED I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL CAR AND MAINTAIN SPEED. ENGINE SEEMINGLY LOCKED UP AND AS I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL CAR ALMOST CAUSED A NEAR FATAL COLLISION AS CAR BEHIND ME DID NOT REALIZE I WAS LOSING SPEED. TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY NOTED THE CRANKSHAFT SPEED PULSE GENERATOR SENSOR HAD MALFUNCTIONED.
