What owners wrote
While driving,the consumer applied the brakes, but the pedal went to the floor. The vehicle started shaking violently and uncontrollably. The driver lost control of the vehicle and hit another vehicle head on. The vehicle caught fire. The fire department was called to extinguished the fire. Both frontal air bags did not deploy. The driver sustained head and neck injuries and was transported by ambulance to the hospital. The vehicle was towed and totaled out by the insurance company.
Brake line on front wheel burst,lost most braking ability,luckly there was not an accident. The rubber brake line to the front caliber rubbed the wheel rim and created a weak area that burst. I inspected the other side caliber brake line and found that it was also rubbing the wheel rim and also had a worn area. This rubbing occured when the steering was turned all the way to the right or left.
