    Brake pedal is "stuttering" at quick stops. When traffic light turns yellow and i press down brake firmly, the brake works, then releases by itself. I have to quickly press it again to actually stop vehicle. This "stutter" causes the car to lurch forward a few feet. It's a bit scary to not have control over braking appropriately. Should be a recall on brakes!!!! Dangerous!!! Happening consistently for last 3…

    I, robert, was sitting in the car when my wife came out of the store and got into it. I put my foot on the brake and started the car. It took off at a very high rate of speed. The car lunged ahead and steadily picked up speed. The car hit a lady walking with her groceries, then hit a parked vehicle and pushed it into another vehicle. The air bag never deployed. The brakes would not work. The only thing that made it…

    The brakes turn off when riding over a rough surface. I know how abs works. There is nothing that should trigger the abs. I know how it works over snow. The brakes work fine over smooth surface. But if braking over a pothole the abs unnecessarily turns on causing the vehicle to skid and slide much further than normal stopping distance. No other car i have driven in my life has done this. This seriously needs to be…

    Car feels like its going to flip over when driving past 60. Had to have brakes changed twice. Car has accelerated while driving at least twice in a two year span when driving over 60 miles per hour. Biggest problems are the wheels which make the car ride seem unstable but only got tires rotated once; however, vehicle seems to run lop-sided? *tr

    Ever since this car was purchased it has been affected by a super sensitive anti-lock braking system. When routinely braking over a pothole or small road disturbance, the anti-lock braking system is triggered. This in turn causes car to roll much further than it is suppose to. I have repeatedly taken to dealer through the years and they could not locate what is causing the problem. The brake pads and discs are all…
