I was driving on I-15 between cedar city, ut and st george, ut. Driving approx 75MPH when suddenly traffic was stopped in front of me in both lanes. Applied brakes with absolutely no results. Drove off of paved portion of highway to avoid hitting stopped cars. Vehicle had less than 500 miles on it and I had owned it for 3 days. Finally got vehicle stopped approx 3/4 mile down the road. Approx $1700 damage to vehicle. Approx 5 months later I pulled into u.s post office to park.
