The contact owns a 2005 Cadillac Cts. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35 mph, the brakes failed without warning. The vehicle was towed to a private mechanic where it was diagnosed that both front brake hose assemblies needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 10V105000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure and current mileage was 140,000.

CTS 6-cyl

While pulling into a parking spot with the wheels turned sharply, the braking became rough and the car would not stop without significant pressure on the brake pedal. This was the 5th time this has happened. Each time it occurs at low speed when the wheel is turned sharply. Brake indicator lights do not go on. I have come very close to hitting other cars when this occurs. My repair man has not been able to identify a problem.
