Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“When you are traveling at low speeds and try to stop there are many times when the brake pedal goes to the floor and it just doesn't seem as if the car is going to stop. It takes a much longer time than it should. I have had the brakes replaced many times, and yet this keeps occurring. This is not happening with our other car, so it is not bad braking habits. I feel there is something wrong with the braking systerm and it is scary.”
