problem #2

Dec 012020

Optima

  • Automatic transmission
  • 32,000 miles

When idling with my foot on the brake for a period of about 10-15 minutes (without putting the car in park), when it is time to move up, the car takes off and the brake doesn't work. There is a sound. This has happened twice and the dealership hasn't found anything.
