 Description of the problemI had taken the car in for an oil consumption test. While i was there i was advised of a bulletin stating an brake reservoir tank needed to be replaced. When i got the car back everything seem fine. The next day i heard what i would call a chirping coming from inside the engine department. I didn't have time to see where it was coming from at that time. I checked it later the next day, but couldn't get it to act up. Again, the next day i heard it again. It took several days for me to figure out that it only showed up when the brakes were depressed. I waited to take care of it since i knew i was going to take the car back for the oil consumption test and it was only a noise. On 2/7/15 i took it back to the dealer. They told me it was a faulty actuator and it would cost $1447. 39 to repair. I went on line regarding the problem with the reservoir. It states "analysis of the failure data indicate that each condition provides warning prior to any reduction in power assisted braking, with less than 10 percent of all reports and claims involving diagnostic codes or complaint narratives indicating increased braking effort or reduced brake effectiveness. In addition, most of the incidents in which reduced braking assist appears to have occurred involved operation in a reduced assist mode and not a sudden, complete loss of power assisted braking". In those cases they will replace the actuator. I feel this was caused by by the reservoir being replaced. I never had a problem until this was done!
