| I got in a accident when my brakes went out that night and i couldn't stop. when my car was in the shop they told my that the brakes went out and i need the have the brake line checked out. i took my car back to the dealer and they told me that the kind of brakes they are the would squeak. they never took the time to really look at the brakes because that same day i had my brakes replaced. i have had transmission problems and alternator problems and a lot more. | |||

| My wife was on her way to pick up our son from school,while approaching a traffic light the vehicle would not stop. as she step on the brakes the vehicle would not stop,it seem to be accelarating. she almost rear-ended a truck, she had to run a red light,thank god the road began to go up hill and she forced the vehicle into park at which time vehicle shut down. she is 8 1/2 month pregnant, dealer cannot find anything wrong with vehicle. we do not trust vehicle any longer. *ak | |||
