Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE WAS ON A CITY STREET BEHIND A CAR WHICH WAS AT A STOP SIGN. I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT MY CX5 DID NOT SLOW TO A STOP, BUT KEPT GOING AT A STEADY SPEED TOWARD THE CAR AHEAD. MY CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED ABOUT 5 FEET FROM THE CAR AHEAD. MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE WHOLE TIME. THIS HAPPENED TWICE. ANOTHER TIME I WAS STOPPED BEHIND A CAR MAKING A LEFT TURN . WITH MY FOOT N THE BRAKE PEDAL MY VEHICLE MOVED ABOUT 3 OR 4 FEET AND STOPPED BEFORE HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT.
