Consumer Description

THE SMART BRAKE SYSTEM IS MALFUNCTIONING. THE CAR SLAMS ON ITS BRAKES FOR NO REASON. NO VEHICLE IS AHEAD OF ME. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN THIS OCCURS AND I HAVEN'T BEEN REAR ENDED YET. IT'S HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES BEFORE AND AFTER I COMPLETED THE RECALL. THE CONDITION IS WORSE WHEN IT'S RAINING. THE CAR HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR OVER 30 DAYS UNABLE TO REPAIR.
