What owners wrote
There was a problem with the brakes grabbing. Vehicle had been to the dealer three times. The consumer felt the brakes were still unsafe. The problem continued to back. There was a whine coming from the engine upon deacceleration sitting and stopping and then went away as soon as the gas was depressed to accelerate there was no problem. (idle was rough) the brakes squeaked and made noise when when applied in the morning. *scc
