Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Antilock brakes engaged without warning and required excessive pedal pressure and/or release re-engage to stop vehicle at slow speed. critical to stop at slow speed since steep driveway enters busy local college traffic and is blind until very end of driveway. there were several instances when unable to stop until front of vehicle was extended into the path of oncoming vehicles. right hub and wheel speed sensor was replaced under warranty. left side hub and wheel speed sensor was replaced the following year at my expense when it failed in the same manner. the dealer did not show me the parts or offer any sort od extended coverage. both should have been replaced together. i am unaware if during the replacement procedure any procedures were taken to prevent this from recurring in the future. *nm
