Failure Date: 03/22/2003

Abs locked up when I tapped on car seemed to accelerate making the car skid and fish tail sending me 4 lanes across the freeway into the cement barrier totaling my car.

2 Brake Electric Antilock problem

Failure Date: 09/20/2002

When I applied the brake during a raining day, my car suddenly went to the side. This kind of scenario happened twice before ( on local streets while driving around 20 miles per hour). I felt that this car's brake system was different from that of the other cars I owned before. Shouldn't the anti-brake system help the car stay straight on the road? on 09-20-2002, it was raining, I drove this car on the highway at the speed around 50 miles per hour, on the first left lane. After I applied the brake in order to reduce the speed further, my car went to the right side, and then left side, and then crashed to the middle concrete. **dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut over to artemis**768012.
