Service Brakes
The brakes on my hyundai elantra failed twice within 10 minutes. I was driving on a highway with stoplights. I had ample time to stop under normal conditions, but with the brake pedal down to the floor, the car would not stop in time for a stop light and even went all the way through the intersection before stopping. It was also not handling normally during the moments when the brakes failed. Fortunately there was…

Electronic Stability Control · Service Brakes
When entering a fairly severe curve, like a 270 degree freeway on-ramp or off-ramp to an overpass, or 90 degree curves on mountain roads, at normal speeds, the esc appears to sporadically turn on and off aggressively. The behavior is severe. The brakes are applied, hard, about twice per second. Hard enough to feel like you hit a pothole. The throttle seems to be cut as well. Pressing the accelerator does nothing…
