Description of the problem	As i was driving my vehicle, there will constantly be a loss of braking pressure in the brake pedal during my daily travels. At times i would hear the air huff as i broke into slowing down my vehicle or having to make a complete stop i would have to switch lanes to decrease my speed if possible or begin to break serval cars away to come to a complete stop because there was a lack of brake pressure . I was only informed of this recall last year in november after driving the vehicle for serval months. After months of contacting serval dealerships and consistently being told that the part was not available. Or being directed to the manufacturer for answers to still to be told to contact the dealers again to no avail there was still no parts made available. It has been a constant worry on the safety of my life and those who enter my vehicle. There has only been one moment while driving my vehicle where i felt immediate danger. While driving on the highway when traffic came to an abrupt stop and the only way i did not crash my vehicle going at 45 mph was by swerving into the next lane to slow down. This should not be a continuous issue when the safety of not only myself but other drives on the road at at stake.
