I WAS FEELING MUCH SAFER UNTIL SOON AFTER THE PROBLEM RESURFACED. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC -NOTHING . THEN AGAIN AND AGAIN . HE DID REPLACE MY FRONT BRAKES $$. STILL THE PROBLEM REMAINED. I CHANGED MECHANIC AND HE STATED IT IS ABS, IT HAPPENS A LOT IN THIS VEHICLE AND HE SEE IT ALL THE TIME. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHERE THE TRUCK DOES NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO STOP...PLEASE HELP! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
