Typical brake symptoms owners report

  • Owners report the vehicle failing to stop when the brake pedal is depressed at low speeds, sometimes resulting in a crash into another vehicle or a building.
  • Some describe rotors developing rust or overheating, causing vibration, grinding noise, and reduced stopping power.
  • Several complaints describe the automatic parking brake or Automatic Brake system failing to release or engage, in some cases triggering an 'Automatic Brake not Available' message tied to a weak battery.
  • One owner reported the clutch slave cylinder failing and sharing fluid with the brake booster, causing loss of both clutch and brake function at the same time.
