Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Multiple abs failures during operation. all components (master/wheel cylinders, calipers, brake pads/shoes) except for the pump and electronic brake control module have been replaced. this problem seems to follow a pattern of failures from other complaints i have read for this vehicle model. the brake pedal plunges to the floor and there is little active braking at that time. momentarily, the pedal heighth returns and full braking is restored. this is an extremely unsafe and unreliable system. *ak
