Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When depressing the brakes pedal went all the way to the floor before stopping. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer for inspection. The booster was replaced, but nothing changed. The consumer tried other vehicles at two different dealers and the vehicle displayed the same problem. As soon as one applied the brakes, they would lock up and there would be no friction to turn the wheels on and the computer would think that the vehicle was stopped.”
