Brake Abs Warning Light problems of the 2003 Mitsubishi Montero

Tl- the contact owns a 2003 Mitsubishi Montero. The contact stated that while driving at 5 mph down a slight incline, the brake pedal failed to respond and the vehicle was shifted to neutral in order to stop. The contact also stated that the abs warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 93,000. Djr.

I was driving on the freeway, when all of a sudden my abs light came on and a buzzer. I then went to apply the brakes and stop but the brake pedal would not budge. It was like there was a brick under it. There was no way of stopping safely. Luckily no one was in front of me. I had to you the transmission to shift down. Pressed as hard as I could on brakes and finally stopped. I have researched this issue and have discovered it is quite common. How is it safe for a vehicle with a antilock brake malfunction to take out the brake system completely? I have contact Mitsubishi and they said there is no recall!! how is this possible!?! this is very unsafe I have had the vehicle parked since the incident. I feel Mitsubishi needs to pay for this and upgrade the brake system. I have researched the price and would cost me 1700. 00 to have the system replaced. With no guarantee of it not doing it again.
