| Description of the problem | The brakes are very hard to press and upon "pumping" almost completely fail. Fail like put the car in neutral or don't stop! Still passed inspection today even with the i think it is your "booster". I know nothing but found several(many ) complaints that were exactly as mine. This is not a defect? This is a part that all would say could or should wear out. My wife drives this car ,are you kidding me? I also read that it could cost between $750-$1,000 for the replacement! How could this not be a recall. We have owned this vehicle for 4 years and it went bad fast! Like yesterday! No help from our gov? |
