My wife was on her way to pick up our son from school, while approaching a traffic light the vehicle would not stop. As she step on the brakes the vehicle would not stop, it seem to be accelarating. She almost rear-ended a truck, she had to run a red light, thank god the road began to go up hill and she forced the vehicle into park at which time vehicle shut down. She is 8 1/2 month pregnant, dealer cannot find anything wrong with vehicle. We do not trust vehicle any longer.
