“Brakes stopped working in middle of driving almost cause a car accident. I looked up the problem and they did a recall on the ABS brake system. Would just like to bring it in to get it fixed.”
NHTSA complaint #10958298, filed 2017-03, 149,000 miles“Repeated pulley and then belt failure causing steering and breaking trouble. Repairs do not last. Local dealers don't have laser alignment tool to check alignment. The internet is filled with belts flying off because of rain or slush in this vehicle, my pulleys just disintegrate with out the water. There seems to be a lot of aftermarket solutions but they seem hit or miss. It always happens when vehicle is being driven by grand mother with the grand children aboard far enough away for a $150.00 tow bill. …”
