“The brakes have always been mushy. I understsand that ABS will respond differently to emergency brakeing than normal brakes but this thing is a real adventure to drive when you've got to make panic stops.it seems to resist your foot the harder you push the less braking you feel.the front left wheel bearing module went out which caused the disk brake to grab and both front tires to wear very badly. The electric wiper control went out becauset the control box is in the engine compartment and got wet. Dah! …”
