problem #1

Jan 262005

Jimmy 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 118,365 miles
When originally purchased, the car would not pass inspection R/T brakes and emissions. The dealership got the vehicle to pass inspection, but I took the vehicle in on 2-3 different occasions for problems with the brakes failing to stop the car properly along with the vehicle speeding up. They replaced a part that caused the speeding up, but claimed the brakes were ok. After that the vehicle was brought back 3 more times for the intermittent brake faillure/slow response, nearly causing several major accidents, along with an ungodly noise when the ABS system failed and locked up. ABS light went on and a pump was replaced, but then the original problem of brake failure and speeding up occurred causing accident. Personal injuries occurred. This vehicle has nearly killed me on 4 different occasions because of this problem and nearly seriously hurt my daughter on the day of the accident. It was clearly equipment failure.
