What owners wrote

My brake pedal pad came off of my brake when I went to stop behind someone causing me to get in an accident. I was traveling on a city street coming up to traffic that was starting to go at a traffic light that just turned green. I believe the rubber is too soft on the brake pedal pad and was not seated on the brake all the way due to me or a previous owner pulling the bottom left side off of the brake by lifting their foot up from resting it next to the brake.

Reported at 50,000 miles, June 2018 CrashInjury

My 2014 surged automatically in a parking lot and the brakes failed repeatedly: it took me over the 4" cement parking lot stopper and into a wall! This was the only way the vehicle would stop! Iwill say that just before I had backed out very slowly as I was in a parking lot. I hit somethig, put my foot on the brake, then put car in drive to pull a few feet back into the parking spot. I used very little gas, not necessary of course.
