Complaint Summary

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

Owner Narrative

WHEN I STARTED TO DRIVE HOME, THE CAR WAS LURCHING WHILE BRAKING. IT WAS AN UNCONTROLLED ACCELERATION. ONCE I GOT ON THE FREEWAY, MY BRAKE LIGHT, ABS LIGHT AND SLIPPAGE LIGHTS ALL CAME ON AT ONCE (ALONG WITH BEEPING NOISE THAT DOES NOT GO AWAY). I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF ROAD AND NOTICED THAT MY BRAKES HAD DEGRADED BY ABOUT 75 PERCENT.....WHILE I DID HAVE SOME BRAKES IT WOULD HAVE NOT BEEN ENOUGH FOR AN EMERGENCY STOP OR NORMAL TRAFFIC BRAKING. *KB
