| Description of the problem | When driving down the highway when i press the brakes quick and fast it will engage and start working. When i slowly press the brakes they do not engage until the brake pedal is almost to the floor. I have almost ran into the back of many people. As i see on the internet 100s of people is having this issue. So why haven't a recall been done yet? I guess someone important have to get killed by this defect in order for the federal government to make this issue known and do a recall quick! Its now safe at all and i don't think the car owners should have to pay for this problem. My car only have 74,900 miles on it!!! Someone please give me a recommendation @ [xxx].
