| Description of the problem | While my husband was driving, the truck in front of him came to a stop to allow for another vehicle turning. When my husband attempted to stop, the brakes when right to the floor. He attempted to brake again and it finally caught, but too late. The sudden braking caused the car's nose to lower, under the truck's tailgate as he hit the truck in front of him. The car may be totaled which we should find out in a couple of days. |
