| Description of the problem | I tried to stop at a traffic light. I had about 150 to 200 feet to the back of the next vehicle. I was traveling about 40 mph. I depressed the brake pedal, it went all the way to the floor and the brakes were pulsating. The vehicle would not stop and i release and pressed the brakes again. The vehicle never stopped and continued to hit the vehicle in front of me. The police would not let me drive it away from the scene, the dealer insisted that i pay a tow truck to bring it back to the dealer and after the second day i have no transportation or any hope of any? I want to know what failed, can or will they fix it and what can i do to get to work now? I bought it new in oct 2010 and it has 35286 miles on it. Well within warrenty. |
