Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING NORTH BOUND IN LANE 3 TRAFFIC WAS STOPPED AT RED LIGHT. I WENT TO APPLIED THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN AND STOP NOTHING HAPPEN AS I WAS GETTING REAL CLOSE TO A STOPPED CAR MY FOOT REMAINED ON BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN NOTHING I MADE A SPLIT DECISION TO TRY TO DRIVE BETWEEN CARS IN LANE 2 AND 3 INSTEAD OF REAR ENDING THE STOPPED VEHICLE. I SIDESWIPED 3 CARS AND ONLY THEN DID I COME TO A STOP. MY VEHICLE SUSTAINED ALOT OF DAMAGE COMPARE TO THE OTHER CARS. WHEN THIS 2011 CHEVY EQUINOX IS FIXED I WILL NOT KEEP IT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM. I WOULD FEAR THAT IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN. IT IS AN UNSAFE CAR IN MY OPINION. *TR
