Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: For over a year, i have been reporting break failure to the dealership. i explained that when i try to stop while going over a bump at 25 mph or less, the breaks fail and the abs does not kick in, i.e. the car fails to stop. the dealership said that they could not replicate the problem and therefore, there was no problem with the car. this morning i went over a bump at about 22 mph, tried to stop the car as i was going over the bump because there was a car stopped about 150-200 feet in front of me. the breaks failed or locked and the abs never kicked in. i rapidly slid into the car in front of me causing extensive damage to my car. *nm
