Consumer Description

INTERMITTENTLY THE BRAKE PEDAL HARDENED AFTER APPLYING THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING. THIS CAUSED EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE, AND VEHICLE DID NOT STOP. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO REPLACED BOTH REAR DRUMS AND BRAKE PADS. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM RECURRED. *AK WHEN THE CONSUMER TURNS THE VEHICLE AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE THE BRAKES ONLY GO DOWN ABOUT 1 OR 2 INCHES AND ARE HARD TO PUSH DOWN ANY FURTHER. THE BRAKES DO NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER HAD TO STOMP ON THE BRAKES 2 TO 5 TIMES FOR THEM TO STOP THE VEHICLE. *TC
