Eight problems related to brake electric antilock have been reported for the 1999 Buick Century. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I never knew such a problem existed with the anti-lock brake system on my car & never informed by gm or my dealer. Now, I've had numerous occasions of near misses. Never been taken so badly in my life. I paid 28,000 for a car worth barely 3k now, what a joke!.
My wife maria nena a. Florido was involved in a total wreck accident. It took place before the exit of pioneer boulevard. She was driving around 60 mph on u. S. Highway 91 heading eastbound in cerritos, CA. She was on the second lane from the outer lane when the vehicle suddenly started to wiggle and begun moving towards the right lane. She tried to control the steering wheel to stay on the lane. When she applied pressure on the brake, the vehicle spun out of control. The driver's door slammed into the guardrail facing in the oppoite direction of traffic. Without the guardrail,the accident could have been fatal.
As I was pulling into the driveway I pulled up to the closed garage door and as I pulled to within a few feet of the door I put the brakes on but the car would not stop. I was basically at idle speed but the car kept going through the garage door at which time I put the car in neutral to avoid proceeding through the house. Please let me know if this is a problem with other cars, I contacted the dealer when this happened. We have driven the car since then and the problem has not occurred again.
