While turning left into a parking space, the brake peddle was hard and would not go down. after pumping the brakes, the peddle went down and the truck stopped. this has happened several times. each time, while turning left and going slower than 10 mph. i have found that this is a common problem with this vehicle and there is a recall for salt belt states. tennessee is not considered one, even though the roads are salted several times per winter season. | |||
