It takes an extreme amount of force applied to the pedal to stop this vehicle, noticed at 35k. Dangerous and not easy to get used to. In addition, windshield leaks on the top drivers side and the rear right door handle is failing on back dutch doors now at 65k.

There was no failures on the brakes but the pads and shoes have had to be replaced at 15,000 and at 30,000 miles. This, I feel, is excessive and the dealer can offer me no explanation as to why a brand new cars brakes would go bad this often.
