Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Whenever my truck is loaded to mgcw and i have to make a quick stop, if the abs releases to regain wheel spin up, the braking never comes back to anything like it was before the anti skid released. the braking is definitely very dangerous if the abs engages on a quick stop. if the abs engages you had better be looking for someplace to go because you aren't going to stop. i've had this happen twice in 47000 miles and i consider it an urgent safety factor. i have driven trucks with abs since they came out and this one is dangerous. *jb
