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.
The vehicle braking system performs very poorly when driven under wet conditions. During heavy rain storms the braking system does not respond to input from the driver at all for about one or two seconds until moisture is removed from the disc brakes through heavy application of the break pedal. This increases stopping distances in wet weather to an unsafe amount.
