4 Brake Electric Antilock problem

Traveling about 35-40 mph on highway ramp, hit brakes to enter curve, felt traction slipping, car loss control & slid all over road. Hit side concrete barrier at about 20-25 mph, air bags did not deploy, my husband smashed the windshield with his head and got a concussion. Road was wet but had no standing water, outside temp mid to upper 40's. This appears unexplainable based on conditions- we feel there must have been a mechanical failure, otherwise something wasn't designed properly. No car, especially with anti-lock brakes, should've reacted this way under the circumstances. We have no confidence in the vehicle and plan to get rid of it immediately. ****dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis****769310.
