Takata recall, the SRS light signal is on the whole time whenever the car is moving, it wont go away. And the car breaks isnt breaking fast when brake pads are being press down all the way instead it breaks slow to stop. Also hood needs to be slam hard in order to close.

Since 2016 I've been having problems with the brakes. We fixed them and the problem came back. When I press the brake pedal at times it does not work. My mechanic said that behind the brakes, there is a hose that needs to be purged, but every time they try to do that, it does not work. There is no flexibility on the hose. We've attempted fixing this several times and it works for a day and then the next day it does not work. Please let us know if there is a way we can fix this. I'm afraid this issues has endangered my life several times. I cannot drive it anymore, but I only have this car. The latest issue was today. After having it at the shop for over a week, I was driving my car out of the my drive way and the brake would not work. I've parked it outside my home.thank you,

While driving in traffic the brake line blew while stopping for a red light. A panic maneuver was made and accident was avoided. A replacement line was installed and while again driving in traffic a car pulled out in front of me and while applying the brakes, another line blew. This time I had to dive into the shoulder and apply the E-brake.
