| 2008 | SERVICE BRAKES | BRAKES INTERMITTENTLY APPLY THEMSELVES WITHOUT WARNING. HAPPENED PREVIOUS TO THIS INCIDENT SEVERAL TIMES AT LOWER SPEEDS. I'M NOT SURE IF BRAKE LIGHTS ACTIVATE WHEN THIS HAPPENS MAKING THIS A HIGHLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. DEALER HAD VEHICLE THREE WEEKS, CHARGED FOR LABOR AND PARTS, THEN STATED THAT THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD THE PROBLEM FIXED BUT COULDN'T GET THE AUTOMATIC TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT TO GO OUT OR THE DIC TO NOT DISPLAY SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM. VEHICLE WAS OKAY FOR ABOUT FOUR WEEKS THEN BRAKES STARTED ACTIVATING AT LOW SPEED AGAIN. CONTACTED GM, THEY REFUSE TO HELP BECAUSE VEHICLE HAS "BRANDED" TITLE. SUGGESTED I TAKE IT BACK TO SAME DEALER AND PAY THEM TO DIAGNOSE A PROBLEM THEY CAN'T FIX. *TR |

THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S LATCHES ARE FAULTY AND THAT IT'S UNSAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE THE DOORS COULD OPEN WHILE DRIVING.
