Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Braking system failed and brake light on dash came on - i was in a parking lot so i was able to maintain control of the car. however, the car is difficult to control under braking and i drive it only occasionally now. the dealer looked at it once and replaced a switch but this didn't solve the problem. the next time they said that it needs a part that will cost upwards of $2600.00, i have not yet fixed this because i feel that this system was poorly designed and should not fail to the point where it is this expensive to repair and the manufacturer should accept responsibility for this.
