EXCESSIVE FRONT BRAKE REPLACEMENT, LOSS OF BRAKING ABILITY ALMOST HIT TWO PEOPLE, DOES NOT STOP RIGHT AWAY WHEN BRAKES ARE PRESSED. TGE VEHICLE STARTED TO ROLL ON ITS OWN AND HIT MY NEIGHBORS PROPERTY AFTER VEING PARKED FOR DAYS.THESE ARE MAJOR SAFETY ISSUES THAT NEED TO BE LOOKED AT. I CAN NOT AFFORD A DIFFERENT VEHICLE RIGHT NOW SO I'M STUCK. I'M AFRAID EVERYDAY I DRIVE THE VEHICLE THAT MY KIDS AND I WILL CRASH DUE TO THESE SERIOUS ISSUES. I TOOK VEHICLE TO MECHANIC MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY CAN NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS EITHER. AS I'M READING I SEE IT VERY WELL MAY BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT WHICH THEN BECOMES A LIABILITY TO THE MANUFACTURER IF WE ARE HARMED DUE TO THESE BRAKING ISSUES.
