| Brake failure, the car pulled so hard to the right it literally changed the lanes. car in left lane had to lock up his brakes to avoid hitting me. this happened again the next day when i had to brake to avoid another car pulling into my lane. brakes failed the car pulled to the right and i bairly missed the collission. this has been going on for a year and the car has been in the shop for this 6 times. the dealer says there is no problem with the brakes but the brake tech says it is a problem with all 2012 ford fiestas he test drove. | |||
