| Description of the problem | Braking to approach a red light at an intersection the brakes felt mushy followed by complete loss of power. I was stopped in the inside lane of a 4-lane hwy at an intersection without power!. After a moment of panic.... Thank heavens no oncoming traffic behind me.... I put the car into park and restarted the engine. I traveled two blocks to where i could safely exit the hwy and park. After a few minutes while i calmed down i proceeded to drive the vehicle to my home. Since that time i have tried to get the vehicle in for a check but cannot get an appointment until august. It has been a few days and i have no choice but to use the vehicle. I have noted some missing and hesitating from time to time but not complete failure. However, i would not take this vehicle on an open hwy as it is performing right now. |
