I'VE HAD MY VEHICLE SINCE OCTOBER 2015, MY VEHICLE TAKES TO LONG TO STOP WHILE DRIVING. THE DISTANCE BETWEEN CAR CAN BE FAR BUT CAR STILL WON'T STOP. I HAVE HAD 2 ACCIDENTS IN THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THIS. IT'S LIKE THE CAR IS GLIDES AND YOU HAVE TO PUT EXCESSIVE FORCE ON BRAKE TO GET VEHICLE TO STOP. YOU CAN ALSO BE COMPLETELY STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND THE CAR WILL LIGHTLY GLIDE BUT TO THE POINT U DON'T NOTICE THE CAR IS MOVING. THE 1ST ACCIDENT THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED I WASN'T EVEN DOING 2 MPH. I WAS SITTING IN TRAFFIC WITH FOOT ON BRAKE AND CAR GLIDED. MILES AT TIME WAS LESS THAN 50,000.
