| Description of the problem | I was driving home from work and i go to stop the vehicle and my brakes made shuttering and clanging noises. Then i notice the brake light came on. Every time i tried to stop i heard that noise and had a very difficult time stopping i almost ran into the back of another vehicle. I was about 20 miles from the dealer so i put my hazard light on and drove on the far left hand side of the freeway and proceeded to drive between 10 to 30 miles/hr in rush hour traffic until i got to the dealership. Once i got to the dealer and explained my problem. He seemed to know what it was like he had experience dealing with that particular problem. The next day the dealer called me to explain that the delta sensor inside the brake booster had failed and it would cost me over $900. 00. *js |
