What owners wrote
When brakes were applied on moist pavement pedal went to floor, causing extended stopping distance, and resulting in a collision. Manufacturer has been notified. Dealer is inspecting vehicle. The consumer points out that brakes on this vehicle were very bad and deserve investigation.
The ebcm (electronic brake control module) has gone out. This effect the power steering and the anti-lock brakes. The problem is that a new cost $700.00. Our gtp doesn't have traction control and we are unable to find a used or reman. Ebcm w/o traction control. The nose cone on the supercharger is also bad. It has a rattle in it that won't go away. It was that way when we bought the car with 68,000 miles on it, now has 102,000.
