  • Car unexpectedly decelerates or brakes on its own at highway or road speed without driver input, sometimes dropping from 50 mph down to about 20 mph.
  • Braking system stalls the vehicle, sometimes limiting speed to no more than 10 to 15 mph, with warning lights and reported stalling recurring multiple times over a period of months.
