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.
After vehicle is parked in rainy weather, the brakes are extremely "grabby". during a moderate effort stop, the brakes locked and vehicle went into a skid (locked tires). This has been a problem since new. Had dealer look at this problem while under warranty and they found nothing wrong. Brakes become less grabby if brakes are applied momentarily while driving (throttle and brake applied at same time) for 5 to 10 seconds. This leads me to believe that there is a corrosion build up that is worn away after brakes are applied several times. A panic stop under grabby conditions would almost certainly result in an accident!
When driving at high speed and applying brakes, there is alot of vibration within the vehicle. On last inspection all four rotors were warped and the rear brake pads fell apart upon removal.
