Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2002 FORD EXPLORER I BOUGHT ABOUT A YEAR AGO. EVERYTHING WAS WORKING FINE..I HAVE MY ABS LIGHT ON..WHEN I TRY TO STOP THE CAR MY BRAKE ENGAGE BUT WHEN IT COME TO THE FINAL STOP IT GIVES AND THE PRESSURE ON THE TRUCK IS NO LONGER THERE.. I FEEL LIKE I AM GOING TO CRASH IN TO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME.. I BROUGHT THE TRUCK TO THE MECHANIC AND CHECKED EVERYTHING AND DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT.. NO LEAKS OR ANYTHING.. BUT DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS CAUSING IT... I NOTICED THAT THERE ARE MANY OF THE SAME ISSUES REGARDING THE BRAKES NOT WORKING PROPERLY.. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.. THANK YOU *TR
