To start vehicle consumer had to put foot on brake, and pedal went down to the floor. Tried to drive vehicle down the street, and didn't have any brakes. Also, vehicle had heavy smoke and vibration from brakes.
Brakes were constantly wearing out excessively every 3,000 miles. Pads were replaced and rotors were turned by mechanic at dealer.
While driving in 4 inches or more of water the power steering intermittently fails. The belt can be heard slipping and then re-engages. The local dealership tightened the belt once but after the most recent incident they state nothing else can be done except for the dirver to "go slower". Also, rear brakes do the same.
My local automotive repair shop told me I had brake fluid leakage on my rear brakes; I took the vehicle back to the dealership and sure enough they replaced the the wheel cylinders in the rear. The van had only 11,000 miles. It was by chance this was caught, I was having the tires balanced and rotated.
