Consumer Description

THE LEFT REAR BRAKE CALIPER ENGAGES RANDOMLY. WHEN ENGAGED THE VEHICLE IS SLOWED SOMEWHAT. SOMETIMES THERE WILL BE COMING OFF THE DISC PADS. I HAVE NOTICED THAT I CAN CLEAR THE CONDITION BY FOLLOWING THE HILL START ASSIST ON/OFF PROCEDURE. A MECHANIC TOLD ME THIS IS A COMPUTER FAILURE AND HE CAN FIX IT FOR $1300. I THINK IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.
