Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. I COULD NOT CONTROL MY VEHICLE; MY STEERING WHEEL WAS SHAKING, FRONT WHEEL FELT LIKE IT WAS BUCKLING AND I COULD NOT CONTROL MY VEHICLE; ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER AND HE TOLD ME THATS THE WAY THE BRAKES ARE; TERRIBLE HE SAID. THIS WAS DONE WHEN IT SNOWED. I DO NOT LIKE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES BECAUSE OF THAT REASON; I DROVE A CHEVY MALIBU AND WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL, IT DIDN'T DO WHAT MY CAR DID. ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE HELPFUL. I JUST WON'T BE ABLE TO DRIVE IN THE SNOW, THAT SUCKS!!!!! WHEN I'M DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I HEAR A MOANING UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE, THE DEALER DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING; PROBABLE DIDN'T TAKE IT OUT FOR A RIDE.
