WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK IN A PARKING GARAGE AND MANEUVER INTO A STALL AT LOW SPEEDS, THE BRAKES LOST POWER. THEY MADE A NOISE AS IF THE ABS KICKED IN, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY HARD AND THE BRAKES WERE BARELY FUNCTIONING. THE RECALL WAS FIXED ON MY TRUCK A FEW MONTHS BACK. THE TRUCK HAS 59K MILES AND THIS WAS THE FIRST INCIDENCE. HOPEFULLY, I CAN GET IT OUT OF THE PARKING GARAGE SAFELY WHEN I GET HOME. WILL BE CONTACTING MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO. BASED ON WHAT I READ ON HERE, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED ONCE AND FOR ALL.

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
