Abs light came on, sometimes when braking/slowing down at freeway speeds, the brakes won't catch and it feels like I'm going to ram into the cars ahead, I've replaced the rotors, the calipers, the brakes, the wheel bearings, abs light won't go away, I've looked into it on the bullitt community forums, and this is a common problem that most just decide to live with, cause no solution has been found.
Anti lock brake pump leaking brake fluid from what appears to be a vent /weep hole resulting in rapid brake fluid loss and low/ soft pedal and significant loss of braking.
1. There is a dreadful gas fume odor inside the car every time I put fuel in the car especially when I fill the tank. 2. The emergency brake does not work properly. When engaged my car still rolls a little. 3. The seat belts do not retract properly and tend to twist and tangle when I try to do it manually.
When brakes are applied brakes have slow reaction time and stall causing the car to run into oncoming traffic on numerous occasions. When driving and applying brakes car vibrates almost like a pumping effect and then skids.
