| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The abs light on the instrument panel frequently turns on, especially during braking, and/or non-braking while making a turn. when the abs light turns on, the braking capabilities of the car are diminished (conversely of what should happen). these incidents of abs system malfunction have almost caused me to have a couple accidents where the braking system was not fully powered. it has felt like losing the power assisted brakes on the car, where there is nothing wrong with the power braking system. 99% of the time, the system works fine, but it's that 1% of the time that this happens unexpected, and is very dangerous. |
