What owners wrote

Iwas driving my son to an orthodonic appointment mid morning, good weather conditions. There was red light ahead with two cars stopped. When I braked, my vehicle would not stop, and I hit the car in front of mine, which then hit the vehicle in front of it. It felt like I did not have brakes that functioned properly. It was confusing to me and I guess I blamed it on the pavement. Now the same thing has happened to me husband and I now know there is definatly a brake problem.
