problem #1

Dec 132005

TL 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 3,500 miles
Brakes intermittently do not work. Usually happens when turning and slowing down or going down a hill and stopping. Has happened multiple times and has been in for service 4 times. The third time in the shop the ABS was repaired due to an internal leak. Apparently another car had the same issue. However, even after the repair, the car is back in service center for lack of brakes after approx. A month after repair.
