Tire Pressure Sensor Fault (TPS) Hissing sound when applying brakes. Brake pedal is hard and very difficult to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. When parked or at a traffic light you constantly hear air being released and vehicle will boggle for a few seconds then stall on me. When I bring the vehicle to a stop I have to put it in park, and pump my brakes to stop the air from leaking to prevent it from stalling on me. Over all the vehicle is a huge safety concern and a hazard to have on the road.

Brake booster went out on the way to work. Just out of warranty. Hissing sound from brakes. Brakes are weak and the leak also caused the car to stall at lights when idling. I have two of these cars and both had the brake booster go out barely out of warranty. This is unacceptable.
