    1. Driving down the road, preparing to make a left-hand turn 2. When trying to slow for a left turn, the car barely slowed down and i could not get it to slow down enough to make the turn. I went beyond the turn and had to back up. During my attempt to slow the car down, it made a noise like a loud fan or a racing engine. This happened on dry pavement with no stones. 3. I took it to a dealer to have the problem…
