Consumer Description

MY CAR'S ABS ENGAGES WHEN GOING OVER BUMPY/UNEVEN SURFACES RESULTING IN NEARLY COMPLETE BRAKING LOSS. THE PEDAL GOES ALMOST ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND DOESN'T WANT TO STOP AT ALL. THIS CAN BE VERY SCARY, ESPECIALLY IF YOU AREN'T AWARE THAT THE ROAD IS UNEVEN. I'VE HAD TO GET USED TO THIS HAPPENING AND ADJUST MY DRIVING TECHNIQUES AS A RESULT!!! I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IS THIS! THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE CAR. *LA
