| Description of the problem | Loss of braking power at slow speeds going forward or in reverse. The brake pedal becomes very hard to depress and meanwhile the vehicle is still moving. Also the brake pedal is very hard to depress when starting the vehicle in the mornings with the electronic start button. I almost hit a parked car on a parking lot when backing into a space with a car in the spot behind me. Happened several times when approaching a red light traffic signal. I first noticed this approx. A year ago, but thought it was just a temp. Fluke of some kind, but it happened sporadically several times since then. When this happened again at the mall on 2/16/19, that was the final straw.... Better report this before something terrible happens. |
