| Description of the problem | While approaching a red light on a city street with oncoming traffic, brakes were applied. The car started jerking violently, and the brakes were not working. The car then lost power and then power steering. Fortunately, i was able to man handle the car into a hard right and avoid an accident. This was a life threatening situation. The car was towed to jim ellis hyundai, 5785 peachtree ind. Blvd., chamblee ga for repair. The shop was unable to replicate any problem and did not fix anything related to brakes or power steering. The car was purchased back by the dealer and sent to auction to be sold. So much for the next owner..... |
