For the fourth time the rear lift gate hatch window has separated from the hinge (S). It always happens while in motion and on just a straight road! I guess I will start taking pics of the hinges, never though of that since it is on warranty.

While driving, the vehicle display screen and lights start turning off and on. The warning lamp says " service trailer brake system" and the vehicle is unable to accelerate at all. Leaving me at a stand still in the middle of the road.
