| Description of the problem | Braking does not seem to work properly, car fishtails while braking, especially on damp or wet surfaces, to the point that i have almost hit other vehicles even with plenty of advanced stopping distance. The car is almost out of control to drive on a wet road, and it certainly isn't completely effective on dry road surfaces. Problem has occured since vehicle was brand-new, and brakes/rotors are in excellent condition.*ak |
