Excessive brake repairs. I have had to replace my brakes every 30,000 miles. I have never had a car or truck that has needed to have all the components of the braking system replaced with such frequency. While at the dealer another owner was complaining to service about the same issue

We are going down a steep dirt road using 1st gear. To slow the vehicle. The vehicle automatically speeds up, and we have to jam on the brakes hard to slow down. Happens intermittently. Rpms change from normal 2200-3200 to 4500-5000.
