NHTSA complaint #11035771, filed 2017-10, 70,367 miles“I have taken my vehicle in numerous times for the same issue; the brakes & radio. The radio screen becomes black off & on. The major issue are the brakes. The dealer supposedly has replaced the booster. This is now my fifth time taking it into the dealer. When you press down on the brakes it releases air & the brake pedal seems to have no cushion. It goes all the way down!!! I've only had this car a couple of months!”
NHTSA complaint #10563804, filed 2014-02, 5,832 miles“I was entering the on-ramp going east and my vehicle completely stopped. I was going around 25-30 MPH and I had my kids in the car. My computer forced my brakes and I was unable to drive the vehicle. My SUV literally made a full stop while driving at 25-30 MPH with my kids in the car and no brake lights ignited. The check engine light and the traction control light came on. They eventually turned off. This happened one other time. I was driving on a residental street and the vehicle stopped again. My husband whom was driving the car said the car just stopped in the middle of the intersection. …”
