Owner report 11646606 · 2025-03-05 (March 5, 2025)

When actively pressing the brake pedal, a “squaking” or “fart” noise can be heard. Whether braking with speed, or at a standstill. This is causing a potential danger to the driver, and others due to potential compromised braking. Ongoing issue. No warning lights on dash. No codes. Not covered under Brake Booster/Pump Customer satisfaction program issued. I know this is a common issue and many have submitted reports about braking issues.
