I was entering highway on entrance ramp there was a loud pop and I could see plumes of smoke coming from under the car, so I turned the ignition off on the car and pulled over to the shoulder, the brakes failed so I had to let it coast to a stop. Then I waited until I could safely exit the vehicle and did so quickly. I had the vehicle towed to a local shop, and they told me I should report it. There was no warning that it was about to happen and yes its available for inspection still sitting at the shop I had it towed to.

I am very upset that there’s no corrective measures for this recall issue. I can’t drive my car due to the fear of it catching fire.

I recently had multiple repairs done on my vehicle and none of the repairs corrected the problem.
