Consumer Description

THE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM FREQUENTLY ACCELERATES WHEN BRAKING ON A MANHOLE COVER OR A MAJOR POTHOLE. THE ACCELERATION IS HARD AND COULD EASILY CAUSE THE DRIVER TO REAR-END THE CAR IN FRONT. I'M AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND BRAKE FULLY BEFORE SUCH AN OBSTACLE IF THERE IS A STOPPED CAR IN FRONT, BUT I WARN EVERY OTHER PERSON WHO DRIVES MY VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE ISSUE.
