NHTSA complaint #10592269, filed 2014-05, 1,200 miles“ABS module is bad, no ABS braking. Brake light on and ABS light on. Module is no longer produced or available. With this said, I am not going to be able to pass inspection in my state therefore leaving my perfectly good car to sit. As is, I am afraid to drive it due to this braking issue especially in rain.”
NHTSA complaint #11734001, filed 2026-04“Abs- traction control- brake- powersteering alarm appears stating to drive with caution- have taken the vechicle in for service and they state they can not repair the alarm- I asked if this would not be considered a recall issue due to saftey issue. As the car states it is not safe to be driven- as I see this a an imminate saftey hazard as the power steering does not work and ABS brake does not work and traction control does not work.”
NHTSA complaint #11731772, filed 2026-04“The service Stabilitrak system light came on. After consulting the service manual, the suggestion was to switch the car off and restart in a few seconds. That worked for a few weeks. After that the Service Stabilitrak light, the brake light and the parking brake light has remained lit. We have not been able to get an appointment yet to get this checked out because the dealership cannot guarantee that they can look at it the same day we bring it in. They need a week. We can't afford a rental car for a week.”
