WHILE DRIVING AT 30-40 MPH CONSUMER FELT THAT VEHICLE ROSE IN THE REAR AND TILTED ON DRIVER'S SIDE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE CAUSE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. ON ANOTHER OCCASION THE SAME THING OCCURRED, BUT THE TILT WAS ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE, AND AGAIN THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE. THE CONSUMER FELT THAT THE SUSPENSION WAS DEFECTIVE.*AK

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A LEVEL PAVED STREET IN TOWN AT ABOUT 30-35 MPH, CLEAR DAY, 70-75 DEGREES WHEN THE RSC DASH LIGHT CAME ON, AND A LOUD GRINDING SOUND CAME FROM THE TRANSMISSION AREA, THE TRANSMISSION GEARED DOWN BY ITSELF, THE ENGINE LOST POWER, AND I HAD NO BRAKES. THIS LASTED ABOUT 5 SECONDS OR SO. OVER THE NEXT 3/4 MILE, THE RSC DASH INDICATOR LIGHT WOULD COME ON BRIEFLY AND WHEN IT DID, I HAD NO BRAKING ABILITY. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 3 TIMES WITHIN 3/4 MILE. THE CAR WAS IN DEALERSHIP FOR 20 DAYS, AND THE ONLY THING THEY DID WAS TO PUT SOME ELECTRICAL TAPE BETWEEN THE DASH AND DEFROST VENT TO PREVENT AMBIENT LIGHT FROM COMING ONTO THE STEERING COLUMN. SINCE THE CAR WAS BOUGHT (NEW) THE BRAKES HAVE "ACTED UP" TWICE, (BEFORE THIS EVENT) EITHER THE PEDEL GOES TO THE FLOOR AND IT DOES NOT BRAKE, OR THE PEDAL IS VERY HARD, AND CAN'T BE PUSHED DOWN TO BRAKE. WHEN YOU LET UP AND PUSH IT AGAIN, IT OPERATES OK. *TR
