The brakes of the vehicle slip. When you are on the freeway and you need to stop for accidents and you brake the vehicle slips and almost wants to role over. When the vehicle comes to complete stop after a few seconds it moves forward almost 6 inches. There could be several reasons why this could happen with abs systems, could be hydraulics, could be the sensors, it could be pulsation. Diagnosis for this requires precision not a simple test drive. The dealership says its normal and that's how limited slip differential works but it slips often and on even roads. The dealership wants me to duplicate the problem for them and I won't want to get on the highway at freeway speeds to show them how the brakes slip. Its a safety concern. I called the manufacturer since I am still under warranty and they say they wont do anything. Bottom line the brakes are not safe and I am worried about a roll over or a serious accident.
