This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Intermittent ABS brake problem. Sensor light would come on, indicating brake failure. Brake pedal felt spongy, and when applied, vehicle pulled to the right. Vehicle has been in / out of dealer shop on several occasions. Major repairs were made by replacing all major parts. However, problem still occurs. Can NHTSA help in this matter.
When foot pressure is applied to the brakes, they do not respond like they should. Vehicle is very slow in stopping. When panic stop had occurred, vehicle did not stop right away.
ABS brakes failed, vehicle lost control, resulting in a head-on collision. Upon impact, driver's/passenger's air bags failed to deploy, resulting in injuries. In addition, ignition locked up/fuel gauge and alternator failed.
PE94038 ;ABS brake system failure. The front disc brake sensor did not make warning sound to alert driver to check brake system. Therefore, one of the brake pads stuck to the brake cylinder which wore the cylinder down. Owner had problem corrected at brake shop. Owner also notified the dealer and the manufacturer about the brake problem.
Had vehicle towed due to lack of ABS brakes. Brake pedal went to floor when applied. Vehicle failed to stop like it was suppose to do. Hit a tree. Dealer bled brakes first & then master cylinder.
Going about 40mph when brakes were applied. The brake pedal went to the floor. This caused the vehicle to have created extended stopping distance. Took to dealer & was informed nothing wrong with ABS brakes.
Brakes: When driving on wet or slippery roads, or hitting a gravel or a pothole at low speed, the ABS kicked in. Pushed brake pedal completely to the floor, and the vehicle slowed down and would not stop. Dealer says there is no problem with the brakes.
When it is wet outside the pedal goes to the floor when applying the brakes. Dealer says that there is nothing that they can do. This has been happening since the owner bought the vehicle. It only happens when it is wet outside.
