“When driving down steep grade, (mountain pass) front brakes will begin to vibrate violently. Very scary when driving the vehicle. When you reach the bottom of the steep incline, the brakes begin to function normally again. I have had this happen on 3 different occasions. I informed the dealership of this but they didn't see anything abnormal when they inspected the brakes. The did not attempt to reproduce the problem as there are no extended steep grades nearby to drive down. There were no warning lamps displayed.”

NHTSA complaint #11719806, filed 2026-02

Has not been inspected or reproduce the issue by the dealer. No warning lights appeared yet. We feel it might be a safety issue since it's a family suv brakes may fail.”
