Consumer Description

WHEN TRAVELING IN REVERSE AT A VERY SLOW SPEED (BETWEEN 1 & 4 MPH) THE CAR CONTINUES TO TRAVEL FOR ABOUT A SECOND OR TWO WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE. THIS HAS HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW FROM THE DEALER. IT IS MORE LIKELY TO HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING AND/OR WHEN IT IS COLD OUTSIDE, BUT CAN HAPPEN OTHER TIMES. IT IS FAIRLY INFREQUENT. I HAVE HAD A FORD DEALERSHIP CHECK IT, BUT NOTHING WAS EVER FOUND. IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN FROM TIME TO TIME AND HAPPENED RECENTLY. MY CONCERN IS THAT THIS USUALLY OCCURS IN A PARKING LOT WHEN BACKING OUT OF A SPACE. IF A PERSON OR CAR COMES BEHIND ME WHILE I AM REVERSING, THE BRAKES MAY NOT IMMEDIATELY WORK WHEN I TRY TO STOP SUDDENLY.
