Consumer Description

I HAD THE CAR FOR ABOUT 35 DAYS. I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON A SIDE STREET AND MY BRAKES FAILED. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AS I WAS COMING UPON A 3 WAY STOP SIGN. MY BREAKS JAMMED,AND FAILED TO STOP. I HIT ANOTHER CAR AND WE BOTH WALKED AWAY WITH MINOR INJURIES. MY JEEP WAS TOTALED. ALL AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND I HAD ALL FRONT END DAMAGE. I FEEL THEIR IS EITHER A PROBLEM WITH THE BREAK MODULATOR, OR THE AUTO STOP FEATURE WHEN YOU APPLY YOUR BREAKS TO STOP. I WAS ALMOST KILLED. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CAR WITH THIS AUTO FEATURE AGAIN. OF COURSE NOTHING WAS FOUND.
