Consumer Description

ON JULY 5TH ON A BUSY CITY STREET IN CHARLOTTE NC THE BRAKES SUDDENLY LOCKED AND BROUGHT THE CAR TO A STOP. THE CARS BEHIND ME WERE ABLE TO AVOID A REAR END ACCIDENT. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ON AT THE TIME BUT ONCE THE BRAKES LOCKED THE BAS/ESP LIGHTS APPEARED. I GOT OFF OF THE STREET AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON THE RESTART ALL LIGHTS WENT OFF. TRIED TO DRIVE THE CAR HOME BUT WITHIN ONE MILE THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. I WAS SCARED TO DRIVE IT SO I HAD TO BE TOWED. *TR
