Recent owner complaints

Service brakes
I was driving the car in comfort mode. The car jerks forward when downshifting. It also brakes heavily when trying to come to a gradual stop. I was turning right into a driveway, there was another car exiting the driveway, I was braking normally, the car jerked forward during downshifting and the brakes overengaged which caused me to hit the curb while moving up into the driveway. Almost slammed into the other car.
