Consumer Description

WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN. THE BRAKES LOCK UP, CAUSING THE CAR TO GO INTO A SKID. IT'S ECSPECIALLY WORSE ON WET ROADS. NOW IT'S STARTING TO LOCK UP GOING STRAIGHT AND GO INTO A SKID COMING TO COMPLETE STOPS. THE CAR IS VERY UNSAFE. I'VE DECIDED AFTER ALMOST HAVING A NEAR CAR WRECK, TO TAKE IT IN NEXT WEEK. THE LAST KNOWN REPORT WAS ON JULY 8, 2002, WHEN I WAS DRIVING I HAD TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR LOCKED UP AGAIN AND IT STARTED BOUNCING UP AND DOWN. I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE THE CAR RE-ENDED ANOTHER CAR. PLEASE HELP ME WITH ANYMORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS AND OTHER BRAKING PROBLEMS.*AK
