What owners wrote
I recently had my brakes and rotors replaced for this issue. Any time I’m backing my vehicle into and parking spot drive way garage etc it’s difficult to stop. I’m flooring the pedal to stop. I cracked my number because I couldn’t stop. I’ve seen an article for a recall on 2018 models that were made in 2017. My truck is a 2017 experiencing these same issues. No recalls are current for this isssue. Not sure if I’m the only one but it is happening.
Very hard brake pressure needed. Car will stop and very har d. Acts like power brakes do not work.. Loss of maybe due to vacuum loss. There should be u recall issued. Not safe. !!!?
