There is a reduction of braking at most times, also sounds of grinding, consumer replaced the rotors approx. (7) times also turned (7) times, due to worping from vibration of applying the brakes, this happens worp rotors every (3,000)miles and every (10,000) they would need replacing.
On several occasions the brake rotors experienced failure.
While driving with cruise control on, when applying the brakes to release the cruise control, there were no brakes. The pedal went to the floor, and did not respond until it was an inch away from the floor. Dealer has been contacted.
The car now when coming to a stop and turning to the right it locks up hard to turn. And has a huming like low oil, in an old fashion car. The noise speeds up and down with the car . What is up with that window though ? I don't know why my brakes were so worn last time that is just so sad.
The car was being moved from the front of my house into the driveway. The brakes would not engage to make the turn, instead vehicle accelerated. My son was driving and he turned the steering wheel to the left to try to slow it down. He then panicked and jumped out. The car proceded to continue crashing through our neighbor's chain link fence, continued through his yard. Then crashed through the fence on the other side, ending up back in our yard and hitting another car parked in our yard, as well as a trampoline, and ended up hitting the corner of the garage which stopped it.
Defective coil spring (which were recalled) caused 3 sets of tires to wear prematurely on one side more than the other.
There was alot of vibration in the steering of the vehicle. The front left rotors were replaced twice, and the promblem is still there. The consumer had to put the vehicle in the shop, and the body shop doesn't know what the problem is.
Abs warning light remains illuminated, indicating malfunction within the system. Also when applying the brakes the pedal travels to the floor, causing extended stopping distance. Cause unknown. Please give any further details.
