We were traveling on a city streets and the break system on the vehicle was working properly until we had to do a hard breaking emergency stop at approximately 25 to 30 mph. There were icy conditions and we slid through an intersection. Immediately after the emergency breaking, and when we applied the breaks again, the break pedal had no resistance and the break pedal would slowly go the floor with little or no breaking action. A inspection under the vehicle did not reveal any fluid leaks to indicate a rupture of the sealed break system. Research on the internet suggest that a valve may have become stuck open in the abs control valve assembly reverting fluid back to the master cylinder reservoir and not to the wheels. If this is the case, this could potentially be a safety hazard for an unsuspecting driver of any breaking problems while continuing to drive the vehicle after hard breaking. The millage on the vehicle was approximately 53000 miles. I have not found any recalls on this problem but, I think it may be warranted before someone is seriously injured or killed. ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly #vpic#.
