| Description of the problem | On april 12, 2014, as the car was being driven at around 30-35 miles per hour, i was approaching a stop sign and began pressing down on the brakes to come to a stop. As i pressed on the brakes, they seemed not to work. I had to keep pushing down on the brakes with force to finally get try to get the car to stop, at which point the brake lights sensor, the abs sensor,and the vsc sensors all lit up on the dashboard. As i was trying to get the car to stop, the car began swerving and i couldn't get immediate control of the car. The car felt as though it was sliding, the stability of the car was compromised. I honestly thought i was going to crash. On april 17th, 2014,in a separate incident, as i was pulling into a parking lot, i began to slow down, only to apply my brakes and they appeared to not work. Once again i had to really push down on the brakes for them to finally work. Again, all of the lights lit up on the dashboard (brakes, abs, vsc). It was also difficult to control the car and again, i felt as though i was going to crash. |
