1 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 02/22/2022

These issues have been spotadic since I aquired the vehicle in October of 2021. Not infrequently the abs system feels like it is trying to engage at low speeds with light braking such as in a parking lot. This also happens after coasting(no gas, no brake no cruise control))and then accelerating the radio will randomly stop playing or begin playing. The turn signal indicator chimes randomly stop chiming when the turn signal is in use though the interioir indicator light will flash normally. I have not been able to stop when this occurs with the turn signal still active to get out and verify it the turn signal is actually working at random times a loud clacking sound will come from behind the dash in the general vicinity of the radio and there will be no out put from the dash vents until the clacking stops. The use of any controls whether radio or climate does not seem to cause this nor will it stop it. Actuator doorb and/or solenoid perhaps?.

2 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 01/18/2013

I was driving down century boulevard my speed was approximately about 35 r 37 miles an hour,the speed limitis a 35 miles hour zone. When all of a sudden all the traffic suddenly stopped real fast, it was about three to four in front of me. So I try to brake thats when my steering wheel got hard to where I couldn't turn away in time so I can avoid a crush. In a result I hit a lady car from behind on her left side bumper and to my right side bumper. There where no injuries,no police report was file. We had just exchange information and insurance information. Before this had took place my I could not turn off my ignition having problems with my power steering and if I break too hardmy steering columns with jurr or stiffen up making real difficult for me to turn.
