This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.

Driving in stop and go traffic (5-20 mph), when I stepped on the brakes with normal pressure for this type of city driving. At this time I heard a loud grinding noise and I had to drive off the road to avoid hitting the car ahead because the vehicle did not stop. It took longer and much more pressure than just a regular tap on the brake needed to stop it at this speed. I drive on this road every day and there was nothing wrong with the road or weather. I called roadside assistance and had it towed to the dealership. No problem was identified. I am no w afraid to drive this vehicle for fear of repeat incident.
June15,2015 experienced complete brake failure while driving near home.somehow made it into my driveway w/O incident. Had vehicle towed to dealership that afternoon. Dealer confirmed brake failure due to total loss of all brake fluid, "verified no brakes & master cylinder empty, found brake fluid leaking from ABS module brake lines. Tighten all (16) brake lines." Dealer svs told me the lines had not been tightened at the factory.
