THE ABS LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON IN MY 2005 PACIFICA SO I THOUGHT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE BREAKS SO I GOT THE FRONT BRAKES REPAIRED AND THE PROBLEM STOPPED FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS, THEN IT STARTED AGAIN SO I GOT THE BACK BRAKES DONE AND THE SAME RESULTS, SO FINALLY I TOOK IT BACK TO THE CAR LOT THAT I PURCHASED IT FROM AND THEY CLEARED THE CODE BUT THE NEXT DAY THE SAME RESULT. THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD GO ALL THE WAY DOWN AND IT SEEM LIKE WHEN I HIT THE PEDAL THAT THE VEHICLE DOESN'T WANT TO STOP. THIS IS AN ON GOING PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH. I CALLED A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THEY DON'T HAVE ANY RECALL ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE A LIFE IS LOST BECAUSE OF A FAULTY BRAKE PEDAL .
