| Description of the problem | Brakes failed to stop vehicle when applied during moderate suspension travel (up/down) from bumps in roadway - similar to travelling across small speed bump. Must pump brake repeatedly to stop vehicle. Incident occurred at most any speed including highway travel. Dealership could not duplicate but did replace the master brake assembly however it did not resolve the problem. Vehicle returned to dealership when it failed to move after shifting into gear. Problem traced to brake booster failure. Local mechanic completed the repair which has resolved both problems - brake issues have not occurred since this repair. |
