Consumer Description

MY CAR BRAKING SYSTEM AND ALL THE SAFETY SYSTEMS STOPPED FUNCTIONING ON MY CAR WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY (GARDEN STATE PARKWAY SOUTH) THIS MORNING, 3/15/2019. MY BRAKES DID NOT WORK TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN AT ALL. WHEN IT INITIALLY STARTED TO SHOW THE ERROR MESSAGES I TRIED TO USE THE BRAKES AND IT FELT LIKE MY CAR ACCELERATED. I LUCKILY WAS ABLE TO ALLOW MY CAR TO SLOW DOWN NATURALLY AND GET OFF AT A REST STOP (MONMOUTH REST AREA, AND FORCE PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO A STOP AND PUT MY CAR IN PARK. IT WAS REALLY A SCARY SITUATION ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY TO HAVE YOUR BRAKES NOT WORK AT ALL. I WAS ADVISED IT COULD BE A LIE BATTERY INDICATOR OF THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM THAT IS ALL CONNECTED TO EVEN THE BRAKES. IT IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS THAT AN ELECTRICAL GLITCH OR MALFUNCTION CAN COMPLETELY DISABLE MY BRAKING SYSTEM AND ALL OTHER SAFETY FEATURES.
