SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
AFTER IMMEDIATELY PURCHASING VEHICLE, CONSUMER COMPLAINED ABOUT THE POOR BRAKING SYSTEM, THE DEALER CHECKED THE SYSTEM AND STATED EVERYTHING WAS OK, A YEAR LATER CONSUMER COMPLAINED ABOUT THE BRAKES, AFTER HAVING SOME NEAR COLLSIONS AND ALSO HAVING A COLLISION WITH A DEER THAT CAUSED CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE, THE PROBLEM WAS THAT NO MATTER HOW MUCH FORCE CONSUMER APPLIED TO THE PEDAL, AFTER THE INITIAL APPLICATION, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT CHANGE ITS RATE OF SPEED, HOWEVER CONSUMER LATER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION (C99046) ON THE ABS, AND THE BRAKE MODULE WAS THEN REPLACED, CONSUMER STATES THE BRAKES SEEM TO HAVE NORMAL BRAKING, BUT WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED THE TIRES LEAVE THE ROAD SURFACE,LIKE HITTING A POT HOLE, THE PEDAL DROPS DOWN ABOUT TWO INCHES AND THE BRAKING EFFECT IS REDUCED BY WHAT SEEMS ABOUT ONE HALF THE FORCE ON THE PEDAL.*JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
THE BRAKE ROTOR SHEARED APART BETWEEN THE FLANGE SECTION WHICH BOLTS TO THE AXLE AND THE OUTER SECTION WHICH THE PADS CLAMP ON TOO. IT IS MY OPINION THAT THE CASTING IS DEFECTIVE AND THE SECTION WHICH FAILED SHOULD RETAIN ITS STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY LONG AFTER THE ROTORS HAVE WORN OUT DUE TO WEAR AND TEAR. IT APPEARS THAT THE ROTORS WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE HAD ANOTHER 30,000 MILES TO GO BEFORE NEEDING TO BE REPLACED HAD THE FAILURE NOT OCCURRED. HAD THIS FAILURE OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY, IT IS LIKELY THAT THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC CONSEQUENCES.*AK
