Service Brakes · reported Mar 5, 2025
When actively pressing the brake pedal, a “squaking” or “fart” noise can be heard. Whether braking with speed, or at a standstill. This is causing a potential danger to the driver, and others due to potential compromised braking. Ongoing issue. No warning lights on dash. No codes. Not covered under Brake Booster/Pump Customer satisfaction program issued. I know this is a common issue and many have submitted reports about braking issues.
Unknown or Other · at 250 miles · reported Dec 20, 2016
I was in motion on a highway when the hybrid system check light came on. My vehicle stopped accelerating and started to slow down to 0 MPH. I pulled over to the side of the road and all the check engine and hybrid lights were on. I was able to turn off the car and turn it back on and safely drive it home but the alert lights on the dashboard were still lit up and the check hybrid system wording was still present. After being looked at by manufacturer engineers and testing the code they notified me it was an anomaly and it is safe to drive. They did not know what caused it.
