“Air conditioner went out unexpectedly this week. Front seat usb charging ports went out as well. A few days later I attempted to stop the car by breaking but the brakes would not engage. The pedal felt very hard as if pressure was acting against the cars ability to brake and stop. I had to push down with all my force to keep the car from crashing into another car on 1-95 in florida. This occurred on november 21st. …”

I called roadside assistance and had them towed my car to dealership. They found the issue vacuum pump broke. Also my transmission having issue since 2 months. They still haven't found issues. I can't control my speed and engine gives a kick when entering highway. They won't repair this issue because their mechanics cannot find the issue.
