With no warning and in normal driving conditions, the vehicle will not stop while applying braking pressure. Braking failure occurs without warning and only allows for about a 20% braking function even when applying full pressure to the brake pedal. No codes are stored (as per the dealer) and after an incident, the brake will function normally. Dealer has looked the the brake system twice and claims there is no problem. However the loss of braking function occurs randomly. Dealer refuses to replace any parts because no codes have been saved in the computer.
