And I have no timeline to get a new one.”

On May 25, 2026, during rainy/wet road conditions, the vehicle failed to stop normally on two separate occasions while I was approaching stop signs at low speed. I was driving cautiously and was not speeding due to the rain. During the braking events, the vehicle displayed an “ABS Active” message/indicator, but the vehicle did not decelerate or stop as expected.
