What owners wrote
A couple of months ago, my wife started the car and backed off a parking lot. When she pressed the brake and felt wired - the brake could not be pressed down and felt like it's jammed somehow. The car did not stop even she switched the car to parking! It eventually stopped after hit a parked car behind. Because the speed was very low so there was no obvious damage to both cars.
