3 Brakes Failed problem

Failure Date: 11/15/2010

The the brake has failed four times starting at about 22 month old. When the brake pedal was pressed down, the wheels kept running. First time, I was exiting from highway. The road was slightly slippery. The brake worked fine initially but stopped working in the middle of the curve. The car zigzagged for three times before reaching the straight road. The second time was on December 14, 2012 after snowing for about 20 minutes. As I was switching to the left turn lane, the traffic light turned yellow, the brake worked initially so I was able to slow down. However, as I was approaching the car in front of me, the brake failed again and the car continue to cruise forward even though I was applying the brakes firmly. At the end, I had to turn the car towards curb on my left side and the impact of hitting the curb finally stopped the car. I took my car back to the dealer for repairs on the same day. The dealer checked the bake and didn't find any problem. The problem occurred again twice in the morning of February 26, 2014 when my husband was driving my son to middle school on slippery road. The first time, there was a slight turn to the left and a small downward slope, and applying the brakes could not stop the car even though the car was moving at around 10 mph. The second time was near an elementary school. When he wanted to stop at a stop sign, on a straight road without an incline, the car pulsated (assuming abs started) but did not stop and did not even slow down. I took the car back to the dealer again. However, they were not able to identify and fix the problem.
