ABS SYSTEM ACTIVATED AT SLOW SPEEDS (<10MPH). RESULTED IN BRAKING CHATTER, BRAKE PEDAL COMING UP AND BEING HARD TO DEPRESS. THE EXTENDED STOPPING DISTANCE CAUSED DRIVER TO USE EMERGENCY BRAKING TO AVOID COLLISIONS WITH VEHICLES AT LIGHTS AND INTERSECTIONS. INITIALLY FIXED AS WORN BRAKE PADS. PROBLEM PERSISTED.
