The brakes failed to stop the car on a rocky off-road mountain public access road. the road consisted of a low grade incline, and the anti-lock brakes froze and caused the vehicle to skid and the brakes froze up and the vehicle was gaining momentum dangerously for about 30 seconds until the grade leveled. however, i was found myself looking for a place to run off the road to stop the car before it finally stopped. i was lucky there were no other vehicles coming toward me around the curves. i have driven rocky mountain roads many times before, and i assumed that this vehicle would be safe to drive, but it was not suitable to off-road driving. i want to warn others to not take this vehicle off road, even though it looks like and is assumed by buyers as a safe vehicle driving in rocky, off-road conditions.
