Consumer Description

WHILE LEAVING A PARKING LOT AND ACCELERATING TO BARELY 10 MPH, THE LEFT FRONT BRAKES SEEMED TO LOCK UP AND THE CAR STUTTERED. AFTER STOPPING AND ACCELERATING AGAIN, THE PROBLEM DID NOT REOCCUR AT THAT TIME. THE SECOND TIME, I WAS LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY, AGAIN GOING NO MORE THAT 10 MPH AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED, THIS TIME I NOTICED MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT FLASHING. I PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE, BACKED UP A BIT THINKING I'D RUN OVER SOMETHING, AND ACCELERATED AGAIN. NOPE, DIDN'T RUN OVER ANYTHING, JUST TRACTION CONTROL SEIZING UP. VERY CONCERNED THIS MAY HAPPEN AT HIGHER SPEEDS AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR
