The contact stated on two occasions the brakes would not stop his vehicle. There was a pulsation when he applied the brakes. The first time the brakes failed the contact's vehicle hit a vehicle that stopped in front. The dealer examined the vehicle, and said there was no problem with the brakes. After the second incident he replaced the rotors. He found that a crack had formed on the old rotors. He believed the crack was the reason for the vehicle not stopping when the brakes were applied.

When attempting to accelerate (pressing gas pedal), vehicle will not speed up for several seconds, and then it abruptly lunges forward at an increased speed, posing a safety hazard. This has happened repeatedly starting within a couple of days of buying the car. This is particularly concerning when driving on an expressway ramp. Thus I have been avoiding driving on the expressway. Also, the brakes work abnormally. There was excessive vibration, jerkiness, and brake sensitivity. I took the car to the dealer within 5 days of purchase and subsequently returned it 4 more times. They only acknowledged that the rotors were warped and resurfaced them. Otherwise, they deny there is any other problem. They blamed the acceleration problem on the A/C being turned on. However, the problem persists regardless to whether the accessories are turned on or off or how high they are turned on.
