Today at 1/27/25 630 pm my vehicle caught fire.i was told that the vehicle was subject to the Active Curve System (Recall 18V272) and Fuel Pump (Recall 23V010).
2025-12-11, Service Brakes
It seems that this vehicle was not included in a brake booster recall which included this model from 2005 through 2015. The brakes are not working properly, and brake fluid has entered the master brake cylinder damaging the seal. It is extremely unsafe to operate this vehicle in this condition. Somehow, this vehicle was not included in the recall, but definitely should have been.
