What owners wrote
Going 35MPH & started to slow down to avoid vehicle in front which stopped suddenly. Had to hit brakes & nothing happened. Rearended vehicle in front. Took to dealer , told no problem was found.
When applying brakes brake pedal pushes up against foot and car vibrates making a chattering noise which seems to be coming from the front of the car. It seems the ABS was trying to work even though the pavement is dry.
