When applying brakes brake light came on indicating a malfunction within the system, pedal went to the floor, causing extended stopping distance which resulted in a collision due to a defect in the front left brake caliper.

Brakes failed on more than one occasion. Took to dealer on Sep.4 told on the 5th that nothing was wrong with them. I beg to differ because I didn't stop when I applied my brakes. Rear windshield wiper moter is already out and had to be replaced. The front seat tracks also need to be replaced because they don't stay latched or they will not come up when you try to get them to. I was told the tires on my truck were fine, but I have a piece of the tire missing. I went on a trip to tenn. And it was 100+ degrees. We were stuck in traffic for over an hour. When we started traveling on the interstate again I had a horrible vibration in my truck while driving at 60 mph.( dot number: 8hxl tire size: P235/75R15 )
