NHTSA Complaint #11139890 — 2017 DODGE JOURNEY

I WAS IN PARK WAITING FOR A SPOT TO OPEN UP IN A SCHOOL PARKING LOT, TOOK MY VEHICLE OUT OF PARK AND PROCEEDED TO PUT IN DRIVE AND MOVE 20 FEET OR SO TO THE PARKING SPOT, AS I WAS TURNING INTO THE SPOT I ENGAGED THE BRAKE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BUT MY PEDAL DID NOT WORK, IT DID NOT SPRING BACK LIKE IT IS SUPPOSE TO AND MY VEHICLE DID NOT STOP AND A CONCRETE PARKING PILLAR STOPPED MY VEHICLE FOR ME. I THREW IT INTO PARK AND JUMPED OUT BECAUSE SMOKE WAS POURING FROM MY HOOD TO SEE THE DAMAGE AND WHEN I JUMPED BACK IN TO THE CAR TO SHUT IT OFF I REALIZED MY CAR WASN'T RUNNING AND ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ACROSS THE DASH. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND THE BRAKE PEDAL PUMPED LIKE NOTHING WAS WRONG. $6,000.00 WORTH OF DAMAGE LATER AND STILL BEING WORKED ON AND NO ANSWERS TO WHY MY BRAKES FAILED ME.
