    SO I AM GOING 5MPH WHEN I GO TO PUSH THE BRAKES BECAUSE THE CAR AHEAD OF ME SUDDENLY STOPS. I DON'T STOP BECAUSE THE CAR'S BRAKES BEGAN PULSATING CAUSING ME TO RUN INTO THE BACK OF THE CAR AHEAD OF ME. WHEN I CALL THE DEALERSHIP I AM TOLD THAT EVEN THOUGH I HAVE OWNED IT FOR 3 MONTHS ITS CONSIDERED A WEAR AND TEAR WHEN I HAVEN'T PUT THAT MANY MILES ON THE CAR YET. *TR
