THE CARBON CERAMIC BRAKES WERE INCONSISTENT WHEN DRIVING NEW, BUT NOT NOTICEABLE ENOUGH TO IMMEDIATELY GO TO THE DEALER IN THE FIRST ~2000 MILES. THE CAR WAS USED IN TRAFFIC AT A RELATIVELY SLOW SPEED. BUT THEN IT FAILED, AND AS A RESULTANT AN ACCIDENT HAPPENED. THE DEALER IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS ISSUE. ALERTED MANUFACTURER WITH NO RESPONSE. THE CAR HAS TAKEN OVER 5 MONTHS TO FIX, STILL WITH THE MANUFACTURER FOR THE BRAKE ISSUE. *TT *TR ..*BF. CONSUMER STATED THAT BRAKING IN THE NEW VEHICLE IS INCONSISTENT AND ALLEGES THAT HE WAS IN A LOW SPEED ACCIDENT AS A RESULT.
