Consumer Description

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE APPLYING BRAKE PRESSURE AT LOW SPEEDS THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ACTIVATE, WHICH MADE THE VEHICLE DIFFICULT TO STOP. THIS OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY ON DRY ROADS DURING NORMAL BRAKING WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP. THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE FRONT BRAKE PADS, WHICH DID NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT ALERTED. THE MECHANIC INSTALLED A SERPENTINE BELT. UPDATED 03/09/06. *JB
