What owners wrote
While driving about 68MPH on an interstate, tapped brakes to cancel cruise control, right front tire locked causing me to lose control on the vehicel hit guardrail head on at about 55MPH. Airbags did not deploy. Took vehicel into one dealership 4 times, said nothing was wrong, took it to another once did not find front problem but replaced my whole rear end.
When the brakes were applied, there was a pulsation in the steering wheel, which was caused by warped rotors. The consumer felt that a new design was needed. The front brakes had been repaired twice. *scc. The fuel pump module was replaced.
