While driving, and if vehicle hit a bump anti lock brakes will activate, causing vehicle to pulsate. Dealer notified.

Happened to be turning around in a parking lot, pulled out into the highway with bumper to bumper traffic, felt power steering jump. Then, there was no power steering or brakes, even at a low speed 5mph. The only way to stop vehicle was with the emergency brakes.

While coming off a ramp to an intersection at about 60 mph, went to put on brakes and back wheels bounced. Pedal went to the floor and came right back. Consumer was stopped in the middle of the intersection.

Vehicle in shop 8-10 times for poor braking performance. Steering not working. Suspension fails & it pulls severly to left. Dealer/mechanic test drove vehicle w/owner. Could not repair pulling to left, suspension or steering problems. Is a commercial vehicle.

While slowing down from high speed 55mph+, the brake system takes very long time to bring vehicle to a stop. In heavy rainfall, the problem tends to be exaggerated even worse. Even at very slow speed 5-10 mph, when brakes applied the brakes would lock up, causing on or both of the rear wheels to lock and skid. Pedal will then vibrate or shake as in experienced with an abs system under full-braking conditions.

Intermittently brakes lock up. The brakes are pulling, causing one disc brake to pull more than the other when applying pressure to the brake pedal. Abs system is not functioning properly. Sometimes can't stop, vehicle has to coast to a stop.

Whenever abs brakes are applied, would become sporadic & not function properly. When weather is rainy & coming to a stop, abs brakes would lock up. Vehicle would slide some distance. Took to dealer & mechanic could not find cause of problem.

Brakes/rotors: brakes lock up periodically; piston seized, brake rotor on the left side failed. Have had in for repairs twice for the same problem, but has had problems with brakes since he purchased the vehicle.

This is an ongoing problem with brake system problems.

When applying the abs brakes on dry pavement at 20 mph the brakes did not grab, but the pedal nearly traveled to the floor, causing extended stopping distance. Consumer states during a panic stop, wheel locked up and then there was a total release, several times at 2 second intervals.
