Car lights slowly went out on drive home. Antilock brakes went out, power steering went out and finally all the lights went out and vehicle would not start. Replaced battery-horn wouldn't work and light continued to come on. Took car to the dealership-reset computer-now day running lamps don't come on when start the car on-they only come on when the car is in drive. The airbag senor is also out. This all occurred at 37000 miles.
Rotors are of poor quality and too small for vehicle. They heat up and eventually prematurely warp, causing steering wheel to vibrate upon braking.*ak after the front brake pads were worn out and were replaced, the vehicle started to vibrate severely and the steering wheel started shaking. The rotor also warped.
When braking vehicle will vibrated,and fluteer. Dealer is aware of defect, but there are no parts available,and parts are on back order. Dealer claims they can do temporary fixing by cutting rotors to reduce the vibration.
Transmission failed. Nlm
Ongoing problem with brakes locking up from the rear wheels. This happened on two occasions; once while applying brakes in a sudden/emergency situation, and another time while applying brakes in a normal situation. Also, brake pedal went to the floor while applying brake to slow vehicle down for appraoching oncoming stopping vehicle. Vehicle been in dealer shop on three occasions, and problem is still occurring. Feel free to provide further details.
Defective front brake rotors rusted through half way, causing the surface to wear unevenly, which may cause extended stopping distance. Please provide further information.
