| Description of the problem | While applying my brakes to stop i hit a bump and i couldn't brake. My brakes lost all pressure, the peddle went all the way to the floor and i was unable to stop my vehicle at the stop sign. I ran the stop sign and slowly i got my vehicle to stop by lowering my gear. I had already replaced my break pads and rotors last year and my fluids had been checked just a month ago. I took my vehicle to the shop and they checked my brakes and the fluid which were all fine. The shop was able to make this condition happen numerous times over and diagnosed the problem. The abs valve was stuck open when hitting a bump and thus no brake pressure. I looked on the recall website and noticed this same issue happened to the 2014 and 2015 models and this had been recalled for these vehicles. Also, i went online and found a blog of complaints about this same issue with the 2009 vehicle from other owners. This should be recalled just like the other years. Very scary to have had this happen and know that it may happen again. |
