“Braking system seems to go in/out intermittently while driving or when stopped. You can begin rolling even when the brakes are applied while stopped. It also will not allow you to start the vehicle unless you stomp on the break pedal. And in a few situations it has not allowed me to take the vehicle out of park unless stopping on the brake pedal if the car is running my mechanic and various website blog report and determine this might be a booster sensor issue which is not being issued for recall”
