| Description of the problem | On start up the power brakes can fail to work resulting in extreme difficulty in stopping the truck when backing up our of the driveway or a parking space. This has resulted in two near miss accidents with parked cars in a parking garage. The issue appears to be limited to start-up for now. If you start the engine and let it run for a few minutes, the brakes appear to pressurize and work fine. It has not occurred while driving at speed. There is not indication of any braking issue with the onboard display. |
