The abs brakes perform normally 90% of the time . However at least once during a trip usually at 5 or 10 mph speed i step on the brakes and must floor them with extreme pressure to get them to work .i end up stopping 5 to 10 feet past where i should . The remainder of a trip the brakes seem to behave normally . No brake warnings appear on the dash and my fluid level is normal with no visible leaks .

The brakes on this car never worked well. They screeched and squealed and were slow to respond. Despite many trips to the dealer and mechanics, they insisted nothing was wrong. I rear ended someone coming down a hill because i was unable to brake. The difference in speed must have been at least 35 mph. My airbags did not go off. I hit the seatbelt way too hard. The car in front of me did have his airbags go off. *tr

When i braked on the same hill two hours later, no grinding and no fading of brakes. Hope this continues to…
