Service Brakes · at 100,000 miles · reported Jun 22, 2019
Brake booster went out. Almost causing an accident because the brakes went stiff. I absolutely can not believe this isn't a recall. I guess it takes a serious injury or lawsuit to become a lawsuit. I was told by mechanic ti have to have repairs at dealer. Dealer is impossible to get a hold of for an appointment. I told them needs to be fixed asap and they booked me a week out!! So upset I drove and suddenly brakes stiffness. Could barely apply pressure

As noted by many on this site, I experienced a scary brake booster failure. Complete loss of powered brakes which put my whole family in danger.

Engine · at 110,000 miles · reported Jan 18, 2019
On jan 12, 2019 we were driving home and without warning the temperature gauge spiked and the check engine light came on. The engine stopped and I was able to get the vehicle off the road. I looked to see the coolant reservoir was empty. I was able to refill it, thinking possibly there was a leak. It got us home safely. The next day, enroute to the radiator shop; the same thing happened. After a tow home, then a tow to the radiator shop and eventually a tow home, it was diagnosed as a water pump failure and now a new engine is the answer for the repair. There was absolutly no warning to this…
