20260211SERVICE BRAKES
Event happened on January 19th 2026. Iâve had my brand new car for 10 days and on the morning of the 10th day I started it to see multiple warnings. The car was in park and had not yet moved that day and a âService Stabilitrakâ came up. Once I started moving 2 more alerts came up âBreak system failure, 62MPH top speedâ and âService power steeringâ. I brought it to the dealer and they diagnosed it with a Master Break Cylinder failure. The car has 120 miles on it. And due to the part being on back order Iâve been without that new car for over 3 weeks now.
