| Description of the problem | Recently all the brake lights came on the dash as i was driving the car. The warning note on the screen said to take it immediately to the dealer to fix. After their diagnostic the dealership found that both the brake booster pump and abs actuator needed to be replaced at a cost of $3,064 including the 3-4 hours labor cost after researching this issue apparently it is a very common complaint with these vehicles. For something as serious as this i'm surprised that there has never been a recall on this issue. |
