Consumer Description

I WAS BACKING UP AT VERY LOW SPEED THE BRAKE PEDAL GOT VERY HARD AND THE VEHICLE ACTED LIKE IT DID NOT WANT TO STOP I HAD TO KEEP PUSHING EXTREMELY HARD ON TO THE BREAK TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP I TRIED IT AGAIN IN DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE DID THIS EXACT SAME THING THIS TIME I NOTICED AFTER PAYING PARTICULAR ATTENTION THAT THE BRAKES WHILE THEY WERE HARD TO PRESS WERE PULSATING SO I HAD TO USE EXTREME LEG PRESSURE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. MY TRUCK HAS ALREADY HAD THE RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE EARLIER THIS YEAR. WHEN THIS 1ST HAPPENED IT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK INTO A FENCE
